Hey my name is Jeff for those of you who remember me... I have been lurking for a while...
This post has a bit of a double standard (not to go against the ad hominum rule; I am speaking of the content of the post) in that the "RCC is basically a Christian church" I am not going to bash on anybody but they don't have nearly the same idea of Jesus or God as the protestants on this list. Since when is a little bit of error ok? If there are falsities than it is completly false. I am a Mormon. I think that if you are going to make one exception you must be consistant.
