I will however point out that your list hardly proves your point. To demonstrate, I would hypothesize that you certainly believe that the Catholics and the Lutherans are two different churches, and that each should be judged on it's own beliefs. If not, then more power to you. The following is written using the premise that the Catholic Church is actually correct in it's doctrine, and the Lutherans have fallen away from the perfect doctrine. I don't believe that, I simply need a perspective:
"The Beliefs of the Catholics and the Lutherans are all the same"
They are both denominations of ChristianityBoth worship Jesus Christ
Both have the Bible as their religious text
Both groups have the Nicene Creed
Both groups are Christians.
The Lutheran church is an offshoot of the Catholic Church
The Catholics are living like God told them to.
The Lutherans have a watered down christian "gospel"
Charles #621: Ive pointed out that the FLDS church is a separate entity from the LDS church
Charles #635: I’m not here to actually discuss the differences and similarities of the LDS and fLDS doctrine;
