A hallucination is a fact, not an error.

John,

I'm still trying having trouble with the orthodoxy of mainstream Christianity. What is the difference in the beliefs that you hold that the original disciples also hold that other sects that aren't mainstream do not?

It would seem to me that fundamentalists would be truer to the original set of beliefs the disciples had developed than contemporary mainstream Christianity.

I think that I was saying if one looks at what has changed over the years and what hasn't, there is a mainstream of Christianity.  This means that very little of real consequence was added to or removed from their core beliefs.  Let's take Mormons for example.  They have diverged so much that I don't believe they can be considered part of mainstream Christianity.

Let's keep it simple and limit it to the sects that only use The Bible.  Do you think these other sects also have a misunderstanding of the Bible?  Is it fair to say that your beliefs are a divergence of that which was taught by the original disciples?
