Christian "Sects"...

Reader comment on item: Churches in Saudi Arabia?
in response to reader comment: Christian sects in the world

Submitted by B. Williame (Belgium), Apr 24, 2008 at 04:14

Let's see hundreds? so the Shuni and Si'i are the largest parts of Islam? So if we talk about evil doers in Shuni and Si'i we talk about the main Islam population?

Because. Christianity had Catholics, Orthodox, Protestants, Anglicans as main branches.. yeh there are thouzands of (current) smaller sub branches but let's not count them in, just like you do for Islam.

Anglicans are a bit more than a hundred with the British Queen as their Patriarch... don't know the Patriarch of the Protestants and the Orthodox but they migth have some sort of pope of their own. For those 4 you can also talk about millions of followers. (crusaders are but the work of Catholics btw, so only 1 of them)

Who is the patriarch of the Shuni and Si'i's?

Regards
