Soleron, they're called denominations.

I know.

@Everyone

The beliefs of each denomination do contradict the others,so it's probably still best to list people under the labels they give. Even if you're certain they would be OK with being listed under Christian, you'd otherwise still be deciding their group for them.

 

That's like saying it would be bad to call someone "human" because they might not belong to a specific race.  None of them will say "I'm not a Christian".

 

Good point. It's settled then. Since even you as a mormon (no offence) are so clear about it, we can all agree that these christian sub-groups (orthodox, pentecostal, non-denominational, lutheran, protestant, catholic, anglican, mormon, baptist and whatnot) should all be categorized under the "christian" religion.
