Something tells me there was some "controversy" in there when those two split, eh?

“I’ve prayed everywhere, man
I’ve prayed everywhere, man
Crossed the deserts bare, man
I’ve prayed in mountain air, man
Of ‘ligion I’ve had my share, man
I’ve prayed everywhere!”
This is the United States of America! When you go to the grocery store you have 15 different types of milk to choose from, 30 different kinds of breakfast cereals, and 45 types of bread. We LOVE selection and choices.
Baskin Robbins has 31 flavors, why wouldn’t we have the same disposition toward religion?
Just kidding!
Everyone: leave your churches and join mine. It’s the right one, and all the others are cults.
Still kidding!
Just scanning the list, I spotted a couple that have merged out of existance, and one that was listed twice under slight variations. I also noticed one, which is a few years old, missing. Looks like the list is somewhat out of date.
I think you'll find your answer in John 17:20-21.
Ice cream isn't religion.
However, in the South, barbecue sauce is something close to a religion.
I do loans for churches, and there are a lot more than 379 denominations.

1, 3 and 4 would all be the same (the apostate presbyterians), if I'm not mistaken.

I bet Keith Dominion had something to do with it ... :o)
Doesn’t Islam have less than half a dozen denominations?
It’s so odd that we Christians have splintered so much. It sure doesn’t seem to strengthen us.
Add this one in as well:
United Presbyterian Church in the U.S.A.
I didn’t think that Islam had any central authority, so that would mean that one mosque could be a bit different from the one down the block in terms of doctrine. So, the answer is ‘maybe?’.
Praise God. This was by design and a direct answer to the dark ages.
Ah yes, the spicy versus sweet debate. Many a schism has occurred over such weighty matters.

Not meanig to sound harsh, but what’s your point in posting this list?

You wrote:
“Praise God. This was by design and a direct answer to the dark ages.”
What? Since the Dark Ages ended BEFORE 1100, and the USA was born only in 1776, how could you say one was the “direct” answer to the other?
Also, why praise God when fractionalism doesn’t come from Him? Jesus prayed that all Christians would be one. Does the opening post suggest that’s the case?
