I've done a little homework on the area. I was inviting y'all to do the same. (And in the STL area we have about 68 separate "denominations" listed in the yellow pages. I didn't count Buddhism or Latter Day Saints but I did count all the variations of Lutherans and Baptists and Church of God)
Can you not see how 68, or 20, or even 2 Christian "denominations" are a cause of scandal to the Body of Christ?
I know that Christians of the non-Catholic/Orthodox (a schism which is a scandal as well) variety have split with each other over petty things. But some, if not all, of the issues that allend brought up in Thread 154:99 which you guys disagree on are, IMHO are not of the petty kind but rather are the kind that can have eternal consequences.
