Don't read this if you're too young.


A bunch of denominations populated by only single people: Premarital sects.
moving to a new town to find out there is only a Catholic Church: Lack of sects
numerous pentacostal denominations: vigorous sects
moving from Baptist to lutheran to methodist: sects change
nondenominational : Ambiguous sects preferance
denominations populated by very old people: Post-menopausal sects
an unhealthy zealotry towards your chosen denominations: sects addiction
church denominations meeting exclusively on online forums: Cybersects


Denominations created by Reverend Oral Roberts (well... I'll let you figure that one out.)
