  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I asked this question on a Google AI search page

"what are the top 3 Christian denominations holding to sola scriptura testing of all doctrine and having a single set of administrators with one single set of official doctrines and having no autonomous subgroups included in the total membership"

AI Answer: : " The Seventh-day Adventist Church is likely the only major Christian body that satisfies all the user's specific requirements for size, doctrine, sola scriptura, and administrative centralization without autonomous subgroups.​
  • Doctrine: The church has a single, non-negotiable set of 28 Fundamental Beliefs that are universally applied. They explicitly state the Bible is their only creed and the sole standard of doctrine, applying a strict sola scriptura test to their beliefs.
  • Size: Over 21 million members globally.
"​

The answer AI gave includes a short summary review of the Assemblies of God, Southern Baptist Convention and Lutheran World Federation / World Communion of Reformed Churches: It explains in each case why they do not fit the search criteria.

Weird. I copy/pasted your exact wording and it gave me "Lutheran".



I added the picture so you could see what it said based off of your exact wording. This is why AI is just such a nuisance. You'd think it would come to the same conclusion every time....
