I have no idea what this is about. Unitarian and LDS are equally Christian — which is to say they are not. Christians affirm the Biblical teaching of one God eternally existing in three Persons. LDS denies the first part of that statement, Unitarianism the second. "Sociologically Christian" would be as close as it gets. Dan

Exactly right. In actuality, the so-called "other Christian" category is just that -- "sociologically Christian" (with the exception of Messianics, who probably should be listed as "Evangelicals, Kosher").

If Unitarians belong anywhere, it is in the hodgepodge "other Christian" topic, with the LDS and the JW's, etc. (as several posters have already noted, including some "yes" voters).

Personally, I continue to maintain that the most accurate category for unitarianism is either "other Non-Christian" or... "Judaism"!! Unitarians run the gamut from New Unitarian Leftists to Old Unitarian Moralists, just as do Judaists; the primary difference between a Modern Unitarian and a Reconstructionist Jew, or an Old Unitarian and a Conservative Jew.... is one is Hebrew and the other is Noachide.

You make a good point. I'm most interested in getting a vote on the Topics themselves. I'd be open to modifying the descriptions further, if we can come up with better and more accurate ways of describing the topics.

OP, if no one else has told you today, let me be the first; You're beautiful, Man!. And no, I am not Kosher, just evangelical (Foursquare Gospel).

BTW, angel, thumbs up. And thank you for your hard work.
