35,000? Please list the rest. There truly is only one Christian faith, and that is Christianity.

there is only one complete Christian church and it is the Catholic Church....the other 34,999 are denominations

Denominations of what? The Catholic Church?

I'm afraid not.

de·nom·i·na·tion diˌnäməˈnāSHən/ noun noun: denomination; plural noun: denominations 1. a recognized autonomous branch of the Christian Church.
If the Catholic Church is Christain in nature, it would be classified as a denomination also.

So it looks like there are 35,001 denominations if your figures are correct. Is that number a Papal Decree or was it pulled out of the air, ie made up of whole cloth (that means false, kinda like a straw man?)
