"Which denomination, sect, or faith group do you assemble with on Sundays ?"

As you may notice around here, many of the believers in Jesus Christ, alone, gather with fellow believers in the same way the first century congregations used to. That is, if you check Acts 2:42 (in spite of the fact there were no Chap./verse designations in the original texts) there was no "name" needed for the gatherings who simply, "...devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to the fellowship, the breaking of bread and prayer." Is that a sufficient identification?

    No
  1. Which general faith group first baptized you in the Name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit ?
  2. Which general faith group do or did you last regularly assemble with, tithe to, and accept spiritual authority from at an elder/presbyter/bishop level ?

sounds like a good excuse to play golf on Sunday mornings rather than go to church!!!
