PL and Turtlekid, Christianity has already experienced more than its share of schisms over the past two millennia. Below is a hopefully-familiar summary of what all genuine Christians subscribe to. Please note the absence of any mention of how and when Creation occurred, whether or not the Bible was divinely inspired, or if the book of Revelation is a literal or figurative work. I believe that if a matter isn't listed below, it isn't something that your faith hangs in the balance over:
I believe in God, the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried;
he descended into hell.
On the third day he rose again;
he ascended into heaven,
he is seated at the right hand of the Father,
and he will come to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic Church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting.
Amen.
This is why I say forget about it. It's not worth it.
O RLY?
