Quote (Henry J @ Oct. 06 2009,23:10)
Christianity is made up of several branches.

There is no central authority over all of them.

The beliefs held in any one branch are decided by the leaders of that branch.

The leaders of one branch do not have authority over the other branches.

Therefore the beliefs held in one branch are not compulsory in another branch unless the leaders of that branch also assert them.

Henry

Isn't the history of Christianity even to this day also the history of how the leaders of each branch are having a hell of a time making all the members of the branch subscribe to the beliefs supposedly being the beliefs of the branch?
