Then I guess we'd better start calling this the errors and inventions of those few groups. As it is, most of the people identified in the title of the thread, DO NOT subscribe to your list entries. I was merely suggesting that this ought to matter to you.Well, aside from a few entries the list is almost entirely made up of beliefs held by denominations and/or non-denominational groups as a doctrine of their group. For example, TULIP is held by several rather well known denominations. The rapture is held by several denominations and quite a few non-denominational groups. There are some beliefs in the list that are unique to a single denomination and some may be held only by a limited number of non-denominational groups.
Doesn't matter. I'm applying the same standard to them that you just explained as your standard for Protestants--if there are any Protestants of any denomination anywhere who believe such and such, it's OK to present it as what all believe. Seem fair to make the same kind of list with Catholics, then.There very likely are some catholics who hold to one of more peculiar ideas but those would not be the teaching of the Catholic Church.
That's not good enough. You cannot in fairness take a belief held by one or two or several denominations and present it as something believed in by "Protestants" when most Protestants don't believe whatever it is. Have a list for Primitive Baptists and another for Pentecostals, for example, if you are planning to continue with this.In another post I will clean up the list because I have added a few items which are probably representative of personal beliefs held by no significant group and/or are not held by a significant number of people scattered across the groups or involved in no group
