I thank you for your attention.

Um, Quakers are Protestants and shouldn't be categorized with Rafsan... and Christian Science. CS is closer to Scientology.

And I am Protestant, although I don't like that either. I would call it "Primitive Christianity" or "Traditional Christianity" which is to say nondenominational.

I have a feeling that this will be debated . I disagree, Christian Science is not closer to Scientology. If they believe that Jesus is their savior, then they are Christian regardless of the insignifigant differances between the orthodox Christianity and non-orthodoxy Christianity.

Still no satanism huh Sidhe, you just don't care who you offend do you?

Finally sorry it was forum rules that held it up, if you don't post a poll within 10 mins, etc, apologies to moderators, and this has been democratically decided by a poll on poll. But of course feel free to discuss? It is a forum after all

 

[Irish Caesar]

Catholic, but not Chirstian as the poll suggests.

 

[ParkCungHee]

Once again, Statolatry.

They are a sect of Christianity technically. But your welcome to make your views known should have voted on the poll of poll, but I guess you missed it: appologies if it's not perfect, but then it never will be

Catholic, but not Chirstian as the poll suggests.

In that case you are other strange belief you have there, hope I got most, but on any religious poll the other will never be accounted for entirely satisfactorally

Still no satanism huh Sidhe, you just don't care who you offend do you?

your right but Satanism is covered under other

 

[Red Door]

Roman Catholic

 

[Kraznaya]

[Old Spice]

Other implies that it is not a religion...

[Eran of Arcadia]

May I suggest a bit of guidelines to add into the post to avoid having this thread prematurely closed due to spam?

 

[Old Spice]

No I wouldn't, so something needs to be done about it.

 

[Sidhe]

Other implies that it is not a religion...

No it implies it's not covered by the other poll options if you want to read other as not a religion then Shaminists will be mortally offended, I put this up to a vote, if you don't like the poll then maybe you should have voted huh? If you missed it tough luck

Why not vote and leave discussing the poll options for the thread created solely for that purpose.

 

[Murky]

You forgot Spiritual but not religious. There are many people who believe in the spirit realm but don't follow any particular religion.

 

[Eran of Arcadia]

That's other, more or less.

Excellent idea. Thanks civ.

EDIT: I hope Erin's happy I wrote in a Mormonism seperate category because I decided their were enough members on CFC so it warrented a sub category, and it doesn't fall under sect as it's too old and too well established and too many members as well, although feel free to labour the point , sorry Erin no offence.

Satan's big enough to look after himself.
