If you're not confident enough in your sources to cite them, why would you be confident enough to mention anything about them or think that anyone could possibly take you seriously?

I think it's because his source is the one previously mentioned. Angel

You make a valid point. As far as I know only Catholics in the world of Christianity have a political figurehead.

Sorry, I don't closely follow the professional flatulist scene...

Well...the Church of England has the Archbishop of Canterbury. That's all I can think of off the top of my head.

I'd suggest the Unification Church and Sun Myung Moon...except he's dead.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unification_Church
Quote:The church was led by Moon until his death on September 3, 2012. Since then, his widow Hak Ja Han has assumed the leadership of the church.

Isn't it pretty universal for cults to have a charismatic and unquestioned head loonie?
So how, exactly, does God know that She's NOT a brain in a vat? Huh

Fine with me, but not true.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
