Which version of christianity is true? I beleive in none of them, all sound as absurd as it gets.
Now ban me, Drichy.
They can't all be correct. All but one AT MOST must be incorrect. And there are thousands of denominations.
However, they can all be wrong. And this appears to be the case.
Of all the flavours of deism/theism I have encountered, perhaps one or to were vaguely persuasive if one were to squint at them in poor light. Even then, they all fall apart under the slightest scrutiny. EVERY SINGLE ONE.
Even Jainism, possibly the meekest, mildest form falls apart rather quickly.
The real problem here, though, is that Drich proposes a particularly toxic form of religion to be the "right one".
Put it this way. If Drich's particular deity were absolutely demonstrated to be real, my very next question would be "How do we kill the bastard?".

I made one post and posted three different times. this particular 'limitation' was direct at a christian website and it's members who love to just data dump. no new thoughts or material but just dump page after page after page of dialog they have on a subject then run.
A few things:
You joined AF in 2012, I joined in 2013.
If attempting to limit who can participate is meaningless, then there was no point in you doing it, was there?
You haven't had a new thought since Christ was a corporal. Follow the rules or find another sandbox.

There are also different competing sects of Buddhism, Hinduism too.

Which church is the "right" one? That is asked a lot.
Your answer is always "Mine".
Billions of your fellow christians think you are full of it.
We don't need atheists to dismiss this level of BS.
Sorry.

But here's the problems I have so far.
First of all, I am not sure why this is being posted on an atheist forum? After all, why should we care which version of Christianity you or other Christians believe is the 'correct' one? Isn't this an issue you, and all other Christians should be discussing among yourselves?
Because, as others have already said, we disbelieve ALL versions are correct.
But of course, like so many of your posts, you are putting many, many carts before the horse.
well because you all use the argument like it is 'sweeping Danielsan's leg.' You think and parade this foolish assumption around like you just won the finals or something. It is a subject that does take a great deal of effort to write out and discuss. I wanted something i could point to next time one of you says there is 30k form of christianity how is it you think your specific brand is correct... Not to mention squashing some of that by exploring it as a forum topic before it is even used.

Not 51, and not 49. 50.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom.

Reminds me of my favorite episode of the X-Files. Bad Blood, where Patrick Renna played Ronnie Strickland. Mulder escapes death by scattering sunflower seeds across the floor. Tons of old fairy tales about vampires with obsessive compulsions like counting seeds.
Which brings us right back round to your video. The fairy tale of some true christian church is a popular one..and just like vampires..it's always good for a laugh.

Just an aside:
Vampires can be killed by driving a wooden stake through their heart. Luckily, this technique is also effective for dispatching non-vampires. So your extra stakes needn’t go to waste.
