I know many people believe that.
I consider GOD to be the Majesty, the Highest Authority of the Universe ... and that is too much for anyone else than One single person.

Update your info.
I am better informed than you on this. Isn't it amazing!
Just because we disagree it makes you better informed? Interesting. I spent most of my life as a Protestant Christian, so it's not like I haven't studied. I did then, since leaving, and continue to do.

No it's not impossible. Unless you really don't know what you're talking about.
You said, that you've been on inernet forums for 20+ years and that you know that none of them agree on most of their myths. So, prove it. make a list. Over 20 years, you must have observed so so many differences. And that has caused you to believe this silly 30,000 denomination myth.
Come on, make a list. 20 should be easy, if you think there's more that 30,000 denominations and they all disagree.
Oh. There you go. 100's of faults, huh?
Make a list, you should be able to come up with 20 faults easily if there's 1000s. That's at least 2000 faults. 20 should be easy.
Yup. welcome to the debate. Time to put your money where your mouth is.
How many differences can you list between the so called 30,000 different denominations who disagree on almost everything about their myths?
How many faults can you list with he Jesus myth? You say there are 1000s.
I don't think you know what you're talking about, and you're exaggerating, and picking on Christianity cause it somehow makes you feel good.

Scriptural contradictions. Good for you. That's 1 fault. Only 19 more to go to prove you know what you're talking about.
( It's ony one because these can be copied and pasted from anywhere )
And what about the list of all the differences you've observed in Chrisitan denominations over the 20+ years on internet forums?
Ancient Soul

Ha, I figured you'd resort to some kind of deception/obfuscation. So typical.
You asked for 20, and I gave you >>.30<<<. So rather than admit you were wrong, you cheat instead.
An honest debater would at least TRY to put in some effort to twist things around to make it look like they aren't inconsistencies. What, would it hurt you fingers too much???

I would like to see this "study" with a source link.
Yeah, I got the info, not yet the link, but a trustable source. Do your own research.

דניאל יוסף בן מאיר הירש
What's there to debate? The inconsistencies exist. That's 1 fault. You said there were 1000s of faults. You should easily be able to come up with 20 good ones. If all you're saying is that there are 1000s of scriptural inconsistencies. I'm guessing that's still false. I'll do my own searching and see how many I can come up with.

He certainly did pray to God. So now you bring up an interesting point. for instance, the prophet Elijah prayed to God about the son who died of the widow of Zarephath. And God listened to Elijah and brought the boy back to life. 1 Kings 17.

Loving God and my neighbor as myself.
And? Is there a point you are trying to make?

Faith-confidence in what we hope for (Hebrews 11)
Yes. That Elijah prayed to God before it is said that the boy was brought back to life. If God wanted everyone to be able to perform resurrections, He would have made it so. Yes, Elijah was flesh and blood, but and he obviously wasn't God. But certainly not everyone can pray to God and the Almighty brings back dead persons to life on the earth, isn't that true? So Elijah was flesh and blood, but was a prophet blessed by the Almighty God. I cannot bring back a dead person and I'm sure you can't either. At least I hope you don't say you can.
