Book Project Christian Taxonomy

This blog is dedicated to a taxonomy of the Christian World.  For all the those that adhere to this religion, it is well known that one of its main beliefs is unity, and yet the Christian world is far from united.  In fact, despite beliefs in peace and love, 'Christians' have been involved in more wars in the name of religion, and killed more people than just about any one else on the planet.  What is it about those who supposedly adhere to these beliefs that allows such apparent hypocrisy?  A close examination of beliefs across the Christian spectrum finds many, sometimes startling, differences.   Where those differences came from, what they are, and when they crept in tell an interesting story.  That these differences have occurred should come as no great shock since it was predicted from the beginning. "Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. 2 Thess 2:3-4
Creating a taxonomy of the Christian world may take a long time, but although I have barely started, it has already been an interesting adventure, and taken me into some new areas.  Along the way I will constantly make an attempt to find the true source of the various beliefs I will catalog. Comment if you like, but follow along.
Here is how to follow though. As you post to the blog, it places things in reverse chronology order. I however write the opposite way. To ensure you view the chapters in the proper order, use the drop down menu and look for chapter titles. At first there will only be numbers, but eventually I will give them names as well as numbers. If I revise a chapter and add too it, I will post a revision date as well. Check back for added information or photographs.
