RE: 'Drich, which of the millions of different christian denominations goes to Heaven?'

Gay clergy, women in the pulpit, changing hymnals, gambling, all issues that can lead to a schism. If a given church can still confer salvation, why bother with all the bother and overhead of a new denomination?
And even if a disgruntled group want tos schism, why not review the other 40,000 denominations to see if there is a "better fit" elsewhere in another established franchise?
BTW, is there a convenient reference of the 40,000 with their differences noted for potential schismatics to review ?? What sense is there in reinventing the wheel, in other words ? Be a shame if the disgruntled group wound up switching to Pillar of Fire Faith Tabernacle of Zion Christian Presbytery of the Sword and Prophet of God, and after a few months found out they preach the communion wafer transubstantiates in 10 seconds upon ingestion, instead of instantaneously, and that is vile heresy by their lights, and they have to move on, again. It would be handy to have all that kind of doctrinal points laid out in a chart or spreadsheet.
