I'm not sure "Evangelical Christian" doesn't overlap with other categories, in fact I'm sure it does, but I can live with this list.
To: angelo
Happy, blessed Passover to you and yours. PD
To: angelo
You've done an excellent job, angelo.
I vote yes.
Good shabbos in advance!
To: RnMomof7
Why the denominational ones???Once you do that you have people complaining that no one else can say anything...we have religious ghetto's..As I said before if someone wants a closed discussion I will be glad to supply links for them ..Is this Free Republic or a ghetto?

The "News/Activism" board has 73 Topics.
Some people wanted more, some wanted fewer. I tried to balance the two.
Let me know if you vote "yes" or "no". I'm not offended by a "no" vote, of course! This is our forum, and I want people to be happy with how the topics are arranged. If the majority oppose this list, then we'll take another run at coming up with something a majority can support.

Yes Vote
Thank You for your hard work on getting this list put together.
To: Ward Smythe
I'm not sure "Evangelical Christian" doesn't overlap with other categories, in fact I'm sure it does, but I can live with this list. There is bound to be some overlap. And any article can have multiple Topics listed. There is no perfect way to set this up. May I take your reply as a "yes" vote?

If Unitarian is included as "Mainline Protestant", I vote
NO. Unitarianism is about as "protestant christian" as Orthodox Judaism, and for much the same reason!!
Unitarian should be placed in "Other Christian" at best, and that is a MAJOR stretch (but, you put LDS there, so maybe it's a big enough tent). They really should be placed in "other Non-Christian" or... perhaps most accurately... "Judaism"!!
For are they not, essentially, Moral-Law-Noachides who deny the divinity of Christ?
To: RnMomof7
Mom, these are not closed lists or private sub-forums. The Topics are a way to sort and search for articles. All of them, regardless of topic, will appear on "Latest Posts". Anyone can post on any article. All this does is allow me to search for, say, all articles that include the topic "Theology" in the header.

Isn't it amazing?
We have "freedom in Christ" and yet we want to pidgeon-hole everyone into little groups.
Forget it.
Let's keep the discussion wide open and not broken down into an anal-retentive nightmare.

OP, I put the Unitarians in the mainline Protestant Topic because that is where they derived from. The "Description" is intended to provide some general idea of what should go into that Topic, not to be a complete definition of that topic. There are Unitarians who are indistinguishable from other mainline Protestants, and there are some, as you note, that could more properly be classified into some of the other categories. With a group like "Unitarians", there is no perfect fit because the group itself is so diverse.

I should point out that in any of the Denominational Topics, the groups who fall in that category are going to be divided into Liberal/Modernist and Conservative/Traditional camps. There are secular Jews and observant Jews. There are liberal Episcopalians and Continuing Anglicans. There are liberal Lutherans (ELCA) and conservative Lutherans (LCMS). These are broad categories, not complete lists.
