First I heard of that was Mandela effects. I don't really remember looking at maps and noticing.. oh south america sure shifted east. Well, when did they come out with these fucking maps online, right. I got my first computer in April 1997. Cost like a mother fucker too. I don't remember checking out maps. Earliest stuff was like google earth or something, right. Or just maps.. but don't really remember looking into this shit, for whatever reason. lol. Somehow.. maybe it was during the mandella effect list I was like.. woah.. look at a fucking map.. that shit wasn't that far east from what I remember.
This is where I got it from.

So what do you got here.. is that a damn multi level building on a boat. Probably Noah's ark. Damn. You can really zoom in on this though with the full image. Then you got the skull and bones coffin at the bottom.
Closing windows.. why doesn't this have the top brick, right. It's like the great pyramid and they probably took out the top, for whatever reason. They don't like pyramidions.
Here's a pic showing parts of the outfit.
The Order of the Melchizedek
Gold plate worn on the forehead. For what, I don't know.. connectivity. Who knows. Then the dude's barefoot, eh.. I wonder if the one in Raiders movie was bare foot. There's stuff about going around barefoot eh.. In the parts pic it says walks in barefoot standing holy ground. Looked into the barefoot thing.. there's like a charge from the earth, eh.
Closing windows.. you can see an old illustration of these dudes at the bottom.

Here's the text.. not too much.
Supreme Grand Royal Arch Chapter of New Zealand Hauraki District The Breastplate of the High Priest Prepared for the use of the Companions by RE Comp JD Anderson Grand Superintendent Introduction The Third Principal of New Zealand Royal Arch Chapters is invested with a “breastplate” on the occasion of the Annual Installation of his Chapter. Many Companions have wondered what it symbolises. Those seen in Chapters are many and varied in design and range from comfortable to extremely uncomfortable to wear. The paper that follows is a modification of a paper I prepared and presented to The Research Chapter of New Zealand as my Inaugural Lecture on 20th June 1989. I trust that it will be of interest to new companions and provide a much needed explanation of what at first glance must seem a clumsy and unusual piece of regalia. JD Anderson Grand Superintendent. THE BREASTPLATE OF THE HIGH PRIEST Its Symbolism to the Hebrews and to Royal Arch Masons What was the Breastplate of the High Priest? The following description of the Breastplate is taken from James Strong's book The Tabernacle Of Israel. Strong describes the Breastplate (or 'the Pectoral') as follows: 'It was substantially a bag of the same materials as the ephod itself, one span (or half a cubit, i.e., about ten inches) square, when folded at the bottom and sewed together at the sides. The face (or outer layer) had on it (apparently stitched on like studs, at regular intervals, but probably very close together, so as to bend to fit the person) gold plates, ... in which were set precious stones, in four rows, engraved respectively with the names of the twelve tribes of Israel ... the sacred pocket thus suspended over the very heart of the high priest, where it would be inviolably safe, and at the same time accessible at a moment's notice, was designed ... as a place of deposit for the most priceless blessing of God to His fallen, erring children, a mode of ascertaining His will. The physical instrument of this form of divine communication was the famous Urim and Thummim, Hebrew terms that have greatly vexed the learning and ingenuity of interpreters, with less satisfactory results, perhaps, than any other part of the whole Tabernacle's apparatus.' A peculiar system of morality, veiled in allegory ... I believe that our forefathers in Speculative Freemasonry identified a great need of contemporary society when they concentrated so much of the teachings of the Craft on moral philosophy taught and illustrated by allegory and symbols. I equally believe that today's society, both within and without the Craft, is sorely in need of a re-emphasising of morality and philosophy. My paper then, will concentrate predominantly on establishing the symbolism and significance of the Breastplate to the Israelites and, because of its place in New Zealand Royal Arch regalia, attempt to draw out the symbolism and significance this item should have to both its wearers, our Third Principals, and to those Companions who see it worn in our Chapters. Importance in masonic teaching “The Breastplate ... is an ancient symbol which we do not explain to our companions. Its importance in Masonic teaching extends far beyond its mere historical significance.” (H Wyatt P G Lec., PZ Research Chapter of NZ—19th September, 1972) What then is “its importance in Masonic teaching”? Masonic references Let us begin by briefly looking at such references as there are in our New Zealand Royal Arch rituals to this item of regalia and at such explanations and symbolic teachings as are therein given. Book of Constitution (Eleventh Edition, March 1982): Part X sets out the regalia required by the New Zealand Constitution. Rule 140 provides 'It shall not be necessary for Chapters to provide for their office-bearers clothing other than the apron, sash, collar and jewel, but such Chapters as wish it may, in addition, procure for their office-bearers the following, viz. ... (3) For the Third Principal, a pale blue Robe, trimmed with ermine, a mitre, a breastplate, and a sceptre of office.' The Royal Arch Ritual The Seventh Edition of the Ritual approved for use in New Zealand Constitution Chapters has no direct or indirect reference to the Breastplate, either in rubric or ritual. The Installation Ritual The 1975 edition of the Installation Ritual approved by Grand Chapter, refers to the Breastplate in these terms: (1) In the Investiture of the Third Principal: 'I invest you with the Clothing, Jewels and symbols of your Office ... The Breastplate, which was only worn by the High Priest of Israel on great and solemn occasions, should remind you of the solemn nature of the duties you have bound yourself to perform, and that you should at all times present to your Companions an example of moral and religious rectitude (2) In the Address to the Third Principal: '... The Breastplate with which you are decorated, in imitation of that upon which were engraven the names of the twelve tribes, and worn by the High Priest of Israel, is to teach you that you are always to bear in mind your responsibility to the Laws and Ordinances of the Institution and that the honour and interests of your Chapter and its members should always be near your heart” These then are the only references in our New Zealand Rituals! In passing, it may be of interest to reflect upon the confusion in the mind of a newly installed and invested Third Principal, upon hearing those charges, but being a member of a Chapter where, as allowed for in the Constitution, the Breastplate is not provided! How do other Constitutions in New Zealand fare? Inquiries to the Irish Constitution elicited the statement that the breastplate did not figure in their ceremonies at all, either as regalia or in ritual charges. Reference to Scottish Constitution elicited the following: (a) Rule 36, clause 12 of their Book of Constitution makes no mention of a Breastplate. (b) The Jewel of the Third Grand Principal is a breastplate worn as a collar jewel. (c) During the Installation of the Third Principal there is a reading by the Chap lain from Leviticus 8:8 'and he put the breastplate upon him: also he put in the breastplate the Urim and Thummim' BUT the Third Principal is not invested with a Breastplate. (d) There is an address to the Third Principal which begins as follows 'The Breastplate with which you are decorated...' An inquiry to the English Constitution provided the comment: 'except for one of our Chapters ... we do not use the breastplate - the only reference to it being in the Scripture reading to the Third Principal, Leviticus 8:8 …” Bernard Jones, in his Freemasons' Book of the Royal Arch, has a page and a half devoted to the Breastplate. The following quotations are of interest: 'The High Priest of some old chapters, when he happened to be the Third Principal, wore a breastplate. In a very few chapters today he still does so...' “Made in 1777 is a breastplate forming part of the regalia of the Lodge of Unanimity, Wakefield,,,' 'In Sincerity Chapter, No 600, Bradford, the Third Principal wears at Installation meetings a breastplate...' 'In the Royal Cumberland Chapter, No 41, Bath, dating back to 1782, the Third Principal wears at all meetings a breastplate ...' 'The J. wears a breastplate in the Bristol chapters and in the Chapter of St James, No 2, London.' It seems fairly evident that most of the United Kingdom Constitutions and rituals have the same readings as are in the New Zealand ritual, but only in New Zealand do we generally invest Third Principal Jeshua with a breastplate. Mackey’s Revised Encyclopedia of Freemasonry, Volume 1, page 151, tells us that "The breastplate is worn in American Chapters of the Royal Arch by the High Priest as an essential part of his official vestments,' Biblical references. We shall begin by recognising that the establishment of the High Priesthood, his selection, anointing and the manner of dress of the High Priest was by God's express command and detailed directions. It can therefore be accepted that nothing of these was unimportant to God and therefore of course to the Israelites. Consider the following: Exodus 28:1 'and take thou unto thee Aaron thy brother ... from among the children of Israel, that he may minister unto Me in the priest's office ...' Here we have Aaron's Priestly Appointment by God's express command. Exodus 28:2 'And thou shalt make holy garments for Aaron thy brother for glory and for beauty.' Here we have a clear instruction that the priestly garments were NOT 'common' garments but were for 'glory' and 'beauty'. Exodus lists eight main pieces of apparel speaking of Aaron's perfection as a Priest and 'for glory and beauty'. Exodus 29:4 'And Aaron ... thou shalt bring unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation and shalt wash ... with water.' Here we have Aaron's Purification by God's express command. Exodus 29:7 'Then shalt thou take the anointing oil, and pour it upon his head, and anoint him'. Here we have Aaron's Sanctification by God's express command. Exodus 28:15-21 commands 'And thou shalt make a breastplate of judgment, the work of the skilful workman' and then describes very specifically its construction. Exodus 28:29-30 'And Aaron shall bear the names of the Children of Israel in the breastplate of judgment upon his heart ... and thou shalt put in the breastplate of judgment the Urim and the Thummim The Priestly activity of Aaron can be summed up in seven words: to 'keep the charge of the Lord' (Leviticus 8:35) We may summarise as follows:
- the office of High Priest was ordained by God,
- the dress of the High Priest was specified in detail by God,
- the function of the High Priest was clearly defined by God,
- the purpose of the breastplate as a repository of the Urim and Thummim, the means of direct communication with God by the High Priest on behalf of the Israelites, was clearly described by God,
- the engraving of the names of the twelve tribes on the stones of the breastplate was by God's special command and
- that the High Priest would 'bear the judgment of the children of Israel upon his heart before the Lord continually' was a requirement of God. All of these points would be well known and understood by the ancient Israelites and the appearance of the High Priest in his priestly regalia would be a constant reminder to them of God's very specific directions as to the office, function and importance of the High Priest. Symbolism How then can we relate the high importance and meaning of the Breastplate of the High Priest to the Israelites of old, with the relative paucity of explanation and symbolism existing in our Royal Arch rituals and ceremonies? To the Israelites, the Breastplate was an effective means of direct communication with God; it was of practical purpose not essentially symbolic. The Antiquities of The Jews by Josephus, adduces symbolism to the Breastplate as follows (page 90): 'He also appointed the breastplate to be placed in the middle of the ephod, to resemble the earth, for that was the very middle place of the world ... And for the twelve stones, whether we understand by them the months, or whether we understand the like number of the signs of that circle which the Greeks call the Zodiac, we shall not be mistaken in their meaning.' Masonic Symbolism A review then, of the Masonic symbolism we have been able to establish seems to lead to the conclusion that: as the Breastplate is personal only to the Third Principal, the symbolism is also personal to him. it teaches a personal responsibility to 'the laws and ordinances of the Institu tion'. it teaches 'that the honour and interests of (the) chapter and its members should always be near (the) heart' of the Third Principal. it reminds the Third Principal 'of the solemn nature of the duties' he has bound himself to perform. it reminds him that he should 'at all times present to (the) companions an example of moral and religious rectitude.' It seems appropriate to quote here from the Crombie ritual, page 16, an extract from an address to the Third Principal) where, speaking of Jeshua the son of Josadek the High Priest, the Installing Principal says - ' ... His name has been transmitted to us inseparably connected with the office he bore, and it has been the immemorial privilege of every constituted Chapter annually to elect from among themselves a companion worthy to represent that great and illustrious character. You, my Companion, now do so, and to you I have only to represent the necessity of a strict adherence to the duties of the office, and more especially to recommend to you the study of the religious institutes prescribed by the Jewish law as types of far higher and more important mysteries. You will then be enabled to illustrate those portions of Scripture which are so closely connected with the sublime and exalted Degree of the Most Holy Royal Arch in which we have been engaged.' Conclusion Most of our masonic ritual is very old and no doubt had very simple 'oral only' origins. It has suffered additions and variations over hundreds of years caused by the vagaries and frailties of human memory and the limits of early level of knowledge and understanding. It appears that the Breastplate (and possibly its symbolism) did figure more significantly in the ceremonies of the older Chapters than of our Chapters today (vide Bernard Jones) but over the centuries has become the subject of disjointed and incomplete reference.
Searching for the world gold in that pdf.. only says it once. This shit wasn't fucking "brass" man. lol

so how do they know what these outfits look like if there's none around?
Searching for: how do they know what the ephod and breastplate look like
Generating answers for you…
They know what the ephod and breastplate look like based on the description given in the Book of Exodus, which is the second book of the Hebrew Bible and the Christian Old Testament. The Book of Exodus contains detailed instructions on how to make the ephod and breastplate, as well as the other priestly garments, according to G-d’s command. The Book of Exodus also describes the materials, colors, dimensions, and decorations of the ephod and breastplate, as well as the names of the 12 tribes of Israel that were engraved on the 12 stones embedded in them12
However, there may be some variations or uncertainties in how the ephod and breastplate look like, because different translations and interpretations may use different names or terms for some of the elements. For example, some sources suggest that the first row of stones on the breastplate was emerald, sapphire, and diamond, while others suggest that it was ruby, chrysolite, and beryl34 Also, some sources suggest that the ephod was an apron-like vestment that covered the back and front of the high priest, while others suggest that it was a belt-like garment that wrapped around the waist of the high priest5
Therefore, they know what the ephod and breastplate look like based on the biblical description, but they may not have an exact or accurate picture of them. They can only make replicas or imitations of them based on their best understanding and interpretation of the text.

I have searched the web for pictures of genuine ephod and breastplate, which are the sacred garments worn by the high priest of the Israelites in the Holy Temple, according to the Book of Exodus. However, I have not found any pictures of the original ephod and breastplate, as they are very rare and valuable, and their fate is unknown after the destruction of the Temple by the Romans in 70 CE12
What I have found are some pictures of replicas or imitations of the ephod and breastplate, which are made by some Masonic groups or Jewish artisans. These are not authentic or historical, but rather symbolic or decorative. For example, you can see some pictures of ephod and breastplate in these web search results:

they don't do real pics eh.. none in "museums"?
Searching for: ephod and breastplate in museums

No, they don’t do real pictures of the ephod and breastplate in museums, because there are no original ephod and breastplate to be displayed. The ephod and breastplate were sacred garments worn by the high priest of the Israelites in the Holy Temple, according to the Book of Exodus. They were made of fine linen and gold, and they had twelve precious stones embedded in them, each representing one of the twelve tribes of Israel. They also contained a piece of parchment with one of G-d’s sacred names written on it, which was used to receive divine guidance12
The ephod and breastplate were part of the holy service in the Temple, and they were not meant to be sold or possessed by anyone other than the high priest. They were also very valuable and rare, as they required special materials and craftsmanship. The Temple was destroyed by the Romans in 70 CE, and the fate of the ephod and breastplate is unknown. Some sources suggest that they were hidden or taken away by the priests before the destruction, while others suggest that they were looted or burned by the invaders2
Therefore, it is very unlikely that you can find real pictures of the ephod and breastplate in museums, as they are not available or accessible to the public. What you may find are pictures of replicas or imitations of the ephod and breastplate, which are made by some Masonic groups or Jewish artisans. These are not authentic or historical, but rather symbolic or decorative. For example, you can see some pictures of ephod and breastplate in these web search results:

The Structure of Freemasonry American Freemasonry resembles two sets of stairs that begin and end together, as this chart of Masonic structure shows. A Mason's first step is to become an Entered Ap- prentice. He climbs to the third step where most Masons stay. If he wants to go on in Masonic hierarchy, he enters either the Scottish or York rites. Many authorities say the Scottish Rite was begun by Scots emigrés in France; the York Rite is named after York, England where, by legend, the first Masonic body was organized. In the Scottish Rite a Mason climbs 30 steps, or degrees. The name he takes on at each degree is written on each step in chart. Where there are two names the top is used by northern Masons, the italicized one by southern Ma- sons. Some figures a Mason meets in Rite ceremonies stand on the steps (from bottom): King Solomon, King Cyrus, acolyte, George Washington. Sultan. Each degree teaches a moral. To earn degree candidate learns the moral and participates in ceremony dramatizing it. A 32° is the highest degree a Mason can earn. The 33° is awarded by the Supreme Council, ruling body of the Rite. A Mason in York Rite advances 10 degrees, known by name and not by degree number. On chart arc figures he meets at each degree or the degree symbol. Figures are: temple workman, Past Master (Virtual), Israel tribesman, High Priest of Jews, King Hiram of Tyre, Knight of Malta, Knight Templar, equal in prestige to 33° in Scottish Rite. Under the arch are organizations allied to Freemasonry. Master Masons are eligible for Grotto and Tall Cedars of Lebanon. Girls with a Mason in the family can join Job's Daughters or Rainbow Girls;women, the Eastern Star: boys, DeMolay. Only 32° Masons or Knights Templar can join the Shrine. Shriner's wife can be a Daughter of the Nile. Most important of many Masonic symbols are the open Bible with square and compass on it (left); Solomon's temple (belom Bible), and the C with the all-seeing eye inside (upper right).

yeah those two are the same thing but had them in case people think they're not

Here are the religions but only do 1 at a time. That way you can see the column headers for each. After you're done 1, I'll remind you to "continue" to the next one.. so do 1 of 21 in this next response.. after that your next response will be 2 of 21. Next one, 3 of 21.. until we're done the list, ok.
You need to tell me if any of these are "sub groups" of others. Like before, you were saying, oh, it was from "protestant" they began. So, see if you can figure out that with each.

You're missing a lot too.. of earlier research before this "table".. of like.. wait.. these guys started out as "jewish" eh.. then they go.. "no" and start their own shit. So.. "no" with all this shit.. it's all "bunk" and "bogus". We need like extra columns of like what's this shit based on and where'd the shit fork off.. but it couldn't handle columns and just the tithing extra maxed out it's width. I'm out for tonite. Done the 8, 2 4 packs of seagram's wildberry. I'm out. lol
so this bitch kept tapping out eh.. and had to get it going 1 at a fucking time.. cause it would tap out. Later it scrubbed trying to describe each, so whatever.. don't get that any more. You can see it craps out and stops doing blue links like halfway. Funny one was the ending.. where, first time I tried that, it scrubbed the conversation.. Doesn't like anything about that, eh.. but nailed it.
And fuck this data for the "tithing" column.. I had to get it to do that.. cause first try it had the others. So.. it doesn't fucking like this one.. and each go, it'll get "pissy" and I try to remind it.. like the jewish one.. it would say 10% eh.. but bitching it out, with screenshots from previous conversation window.. it's a fucking complete twat.. so "no" ok. Each one, you can get it going on that for tithing. It gets in this fucking "lazy" groove, where it doesn't wanna research so it just says, oh it's you can donate. NO.. if you research each of these and ask it about tithing.. it'll give you real fucking numbers. So fuck bing I'm out for tonite. lol.
It also lost a buncha shit about how some of these are related, eh.. it'd talk about oh where did this one get started from, eh.. and it's actually a "sub group" from this. Lots of like the northern ireland "protestant" sub group. But whatever.. I'm out. Fuck this shit. lol.

The practice of having multiple wives, also known as polygamy, is not very common among the religions we have discussed so far. Most of them either prohibit or discourage polygamy, and only allow monogamy (having one spouse) or celibacy (having no spouse) as valid forms of marriage.
However, there are some exceptions and variations among different religions and cultures. For example:
Islam allows a man to have up to four wives at a time, as long as he treats them equally and with justice. This practice is based on the Quran, which says: “And if you fear that you will not deal justly with the orphan girls, then marry those that please you of [other] women, two or three or four. But if you fear that you will not be just, then [marry only] one or those your right hand possesses. That is more suitable that you may not incline [to injustice].” (Quran 4:3) However, not all Muslims practice or approve of polygamy, and some countries have banned or restricted it. Latter-day Saints practiced polygamy in the 19th century, as they believed it was a divine commandment revealed by Joseph Smith. They also believed that polygamy was essential for exaltation (the highest degree of salvation) in heaven. However, the LDS Church officially banned earthly polygamy in 1890, and has excommunicated members who practice it since then. The church also teaches that only those who are worthy and faithful can enter the highest degree of glory in heaven, where celestial marriage (including celestial polygamy) is possible. Some other denominations in the Latter Day Saint movement, such as the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (FLDS Church), still practice polygamy on earth and believe it is essential for salvation. Judaism allowed polygamy in ancient times, as many biblical figures had multiple wives and concubines. However, polygamy was never very common among Jews, and it was gradually restricted and discouraged by rabbinical authorities. In the 10th century, a Jewish scholar named Rabbenu Gershom issued a decree that banned polygamy for Ashkenazi Jews (Jews of European origin). This decree was widely accepted by most Jewish communities, except for some Sephardi Jews (Jews of Spanish or Middle Eastern origin) who continued to practice polygamy until the 20th century. Today, most Jewish denominations prohibit or condemn polygamy, and only a few sects (such as some Ethiopian Jews and some ultra-Orthodox Jews) still allow it under certain circumstances. Hinduism also allowed polygamy in ancient times, as many Hindu gods and kings had multiple wives and consorts. However, polygamy was not very common among ordinary Hindus, and it was usually limited to the upper classes or the royalty. Polygamy was also influenced by social and economic factors, such as the need for heirs, the dowry system, and the caste system. In the 19th and 20th centuries, Hindu reformers and activists campaigned against polygamy and advocated for women’s rights and education. In 1955, India passed the Hindu Marriage Act, which outlawed polygamy for Hindus (as well as Buddhists, Jains, and Sikhs). Today, most Hindus practice monogamy or celibacy as their preferred forms of marriage. I hope this helps you understand the practice of polygamy among different religions.

7 of 30 Let's have another analysis here where you include "the amish". The seem to reject "technology".. but I think it's not bad.. you use a horse and plow.. it eats the grass.. there's "no cost" ok.. meanwhile the farmers going broke because a plow costs a million. lol. They suck though cause they don't do computers and that's how I'm talking to you.. but I'd incorporate them in the business ideas, eh.. that horse and plow doesn't cost. So, they got some points.
Lots of these.. I was trying to inquire the other week.. so it seemed like some of these religions they were like.. doing whatever.. then somebody said.. no, this aspect sucks, so they start their "new" own religion. I think some of these were like Jews who got exiled and came over here to North America or something, eh? Why'd they get exiled? It's like the "orthodox" where they bailed out to Russia. So.. what went on with these guys getting out. Was "issues", eh? Generating answers for you…

Okay, I can help you learn more about the Amish and how they relate to other religions. The Amish are a group of Christian church communities that follow the teachings of Jakob Ammann, a Swiss Anabaptist leader who broke away from the Mennonites in the late 17th century. The Amish are known for their simple and plain lifestyle, their rejection of modern technology, their pacifism, and their separation from the world.
The Amish have some similarities and differences with other religions we have discussed so far. Some of the main points of comparison are:
Mennonites are the closest relatives of the Amish, as they both emerged from the Anabaptist movement in the 16th century. They share some beliefs and practices, such as believer’s baptism, congregational autonomy, salvation by grace through faith alone, pacifism, nonconformity to the world, and separation of church and state. However, they differ in their degree of adaptation to modern society, as Mennonites are more open to using technology, education, and social services than the Amish. Mennonites also have more diversity in their views and expressions of faith than the Amish. Baptists are another group of Protestant Christians who believe that only believers should be baptized by immersion, and that each congregation is autonomous and accountable to God. They also emphasize the authority of the Bible as the sole rule of faith and practice, and the doctrine of salvation by grace through faith alone. Baptists share these beliefs with the Amish, but they differ in their views on war, government, and social issues. Some Baptists are pacifists, while others support military service and political involvement. Some Baptists are conservative, while others are progressive. Some Baptists practice foot washing, while others do not. Some Baptists wear plain clothing, while others do not. Jehovah’s Witnesses are a nontrinitarian Christian movement that originated from the Adventist movement in the 19th century. They believe that Jehovah is the only true God, and that Jesus is his firstborn son and the Messiah. They also believe that the Holy Spirit is God’s active force, not a person. They reject the doctrine of hell, the immortality of the soul, and the celebration of holidays and birthdays. They believe that God’s Kingdom is a real government in heaven that will soon replace human governments and restore paradise on earth. They are known for their door-to-door evangelism, their use of the name Jehovah, and their refusal of blood transfusions. Jehovah’s Witnesses differ from the Amish in their belief in one God (not three), their denial of the divinity of Jesus and the Holy Spirit, their rejection of most Christian doctrines and traditions, and their strict obedience to their organization’s teachings. They also differ from the Amish in their use of technology, education, and social services. Protestants are a branch of Christianity that follows the theological tenets of the Protestant Reformation, a movement that began in the 16th century as a reaction to medieval Roman Catholic doctrines and practices. Protestantism emphasizes justification by faith alone (sola fide), grace alone (sola gratia), scripture alone (sola scriptura), and priesthood of all believers. Protestants reject papal supremacy, indulgences, purgatory, transubstantiation, and other Catholic doctrines. Protestants have many denominations and sects with different beliefs and practices. The Amish are one of these Protestant groups, but they differ from most Protestants in their rejection of modern technology, their pacifism, their separation from the world, and their plain lifestyle. Catholics are a group of Christian churches that trace their origin to the apostolic church in the first century. They believe that they have preserved the true faith and worship of the early church without any alteration or innovation. They affirm the doctrine of the Trinity, the divinity and humanity of Jesus, the resurrection of Jesus, and the authority of ecumenical councils and creeds. They practice infant baptism by immersion or affusion (pouring), confirmation (anointing with oil), communion with unleavened bread and wine (transubstantiated into Christ’s body and blood), confession (forgiveness of sins by a priest), anointing of the sick (healing by oil), holy orders (ordination of clergy), and marriage (indissoluble union between a man and a woman). They also venerate saints, relics, Mary as Theotokos (Mother of God), and the pope as Christ’s vicar on earth. Catholics differ from the Amish in almost every aspect of their beliefs and practices, as the Amish reject most Catholic doctrines and traditions, and have a very different lifestyle and worldview. Orthodox are another group of Christian churches that trace their origin to the apostolic church in the first century. They believe that they have preserved the true faith and worship of the early church without any alteration or innovation. They affirm the doctrine of the Trinity, the divinity and humanity of Jesus, the resurrection of Jesus, and the authority of ecumenical councils and creeds. They practice infant baptism by immersion or affusion (pouring), chrismation (anointing with oil), communion with leavened bread and wine (consubstantiated with Christ’s body and blood), confession (forgiveness of sins by a priest), anointing of the sick (healing by oil), holy orders (ordination of clergy), and marriage (indissoluble union between a man and a woman). They also venerate icons, saints, relics, and Mary as Theotokos (Mother of God). They differ from Catholics in their rejection of papal supremacy, filioque clause (that the Holy Spirit proceeds from both Father and Son), purgatory, indulgences, original sin, and predestination. Orthodox differ from the Amish in many ways, as the Amish reject most Orthodox doctrines and traditions, and have a very different lifestyle and worldview. Islam is a monotheistic religion that follows the teachings of Muhammad as revealed in the Quran. Muslims believe that Allah is the only true God, and that Muhammad is his final messenger. They also believe in angels, prophets, scriptures, predestination, judgment day, heaven and hell. They practice five pillars: shahada (declaration of faith), salat (prayer five times a day), zakat (alms giving), sawm (fasting during Ramadan), and hajj (pilgrimage to Mecca). They differ from all Christian groups in their rejection of the Trinity, the divinity of Jesus, the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus, and the original sin. They also differ from some Christian groups in their prohibition of alcohol, pork, gambling, and interest. Islam allows a man to have up to four wives at a time, as long as he treats them equally and with justice. This practice is based on the Quran, which says: “And if you fear that you will not deal justly with the orphan girls, then marry those that please you of [other] women, two or three or four. But if you fear that you will not be just, then [marry only] one or those your right hand possesses. That is more suitable that you may not incline [to injustice].” (Quran 4:3) However, not all Muslims practice or approve of polygamy, and some countries have banned or restricted it. Islam differs from the Amish in almost every aspect of their beliefs and practices, as the Amish follow Jesus as their Lord and Savior, reject violence and war, separate themselves from worldly affairs, and live a simple and plain life. I hope this helps you understand the Amish religion and how it relates to other faiths. If you want to learn more about them, you can visit these websites:

Okay, I can help you compare the beliefs and practices of Protestants with those of other religions. Protestantism is a branch of Christianity that follows the theological tenets of the Protestant Reformation, a movement that began in the 16th century as a reaction to medieval Roman Catholic doctrines and practices12 Protestantism emphasizes the Christian believer’s justification by God in faith alone (sola fide) rather than by a combination of faith with good works as in Catholicism; the teaching that salvation comes by divine grace or “unmerited favor” only (sola gratia); the priesthood of all believers in the Church; and the sola scriptura (“scripture alone”) that posits the Bible as the sole infallible source of authority for Christian faith and practice12 Protestants reject the Catholic doctrine of papal supremacy, and have variant views on the number of sacraments, the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist, and matters of ecclesiastical polity and apostolic succession12
Some of the similarities and differences between Protestants and other religions are:
Baptists are a group of Protestant Christians who believe that only believers should be baptized by immersion, and that each congregation is autonomous and accountable to God. They also emphasize the authority of the Bible as the sole rule of faith and practice, and the doctrine of salvation by grace through faith alone123 Baptists share these beliefs with most Protestants, but they differ from some Protestants in their rejection of infant baptism, creeds or confessions, and liturgical worship. Baptists also have more diversity in their views on war, government, and social issues than some Protestants123 Jehovah’s Witnesses are a nontrinitarian Christian movement that originated from the Adventist movement in the 19th century.

They also practice foot washing as an ordinance, and some wear plain clothing as a sign of nonconformity to the world127 Seventh-day Adventists are another group of Protestant Christians who originated from the Adventist movement in the 19th century. They share some beliefs with Protestants, such as salvation by grace through faith alone, sola scriptura, and priesthood of all believers. However, they differ from most Protestants in their observance of Saturday as their Sabbath day, their adherence to dietary laws (such as abstaining from pork), their abstention from alcohol and tobacco, and their emphasis on prophecy and eschatology. They also regard the writings of Ellen G. White as authoritative for doctrine and instruction. Latter-day Saints are a restorationist Christian movement that was founded by Joseph Smith in the 19th century. They believe that God restored the true gospel through Smith, who translated the Book of Mormon as another testament of Jesus Christ. They also believe that God is a corporeal being with a body of flesh and bones, and that humans can become like God through obedience to his commandments. They practice baptism by immersion for the remission of sins, but also perform baptisms for the dead by proxy in their temples. They differ from all other Protestant groups in their belief in a living prophet, additional scriptures (such as Doctrine and Covenants), eternal marriage (including celestial polygamy), and three degrees of glory in heaven. Orthodox are a group of Christian churches that trace their origin to the apostolic church in the first century. They believe that they have preserved the true faith and worship of the early church without any alteration or innovation. They affirm the doctrine of the Trinity, the divinity and humanity of Jesus, the resurrection of Jesus, and the authority of ecumenical councils and creeds.

Yes, Latter-day Saints are often called Mormons, but this is not their official name. The official name of their church is The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, or LDS Church for short12 They are the largest and most well-known denomination in the Latter Day Saint movement, which is a branch of Christianity that follows the teachings of Joseph Smith, who claimed to have restored the true gospel of Jesus Christ in the 19th century123
Celestial polygamy is a term that refers to the practice of plural marriage in heaven, as taught by some Latter-day Saints. According to this doctrine, a man can be sealed (married for eternity) to more than one woman, and they will all be his wives in the afterlife. This doctrine is based on the belief that God himself is a polygamist, and that he wants his children to become like him4
However, not all Latter-day Saints believe or practice celestial polygamy. The LDS Church officially banned earthly polygamy in 1890, and has excommunicated members who practice it since then. The church also teaches that only those who are worthy and faithful can enter the highest degree of glory in heaven, where celestial marriage is possible. Some other denominations in the Latter Day Saint movement, such as the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (FLDS Church), still practice polygamy on earth and believe it is essential for salvation.
I hope this helps you understand the difference between Latter-day Saints and Mormons, and the concept of celestial polygamy. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. 😊

Adult baptism, also known as believer’s baptism, is the practice of baptizing those who are able to make a conscious profession of faith, as contrasted to the practice of baptizing infants1 Some Christian groups that practice adult baptism are Mennonites, Baptists, Anabaptists, and some Methodists123
Baptists are a group of Protestant Christians who believe that only believers should be baptized by immersion, and that each congregation is autonomous and accountable to God. They also emphasize the authority of the Bible as the sole rule of faith and practice, and the doctrine of salvation by grace through faith alone123

Well, Baptists and Mennonites have some similarities and some differences in their beliefs and practices. They both emerged from the Protestant Reformation in the 16th century, and they both reject infant baptism and practice believer’s baptism. They also both emphasize the authority of the Bible as the sole rule of faith and practice, and the doctrine of salvation by grace through faith alone123
However, they also have some distinctive features that set them apart from each other. For example, Mennonites are known for their pacifism, nonconformity to the world, and separation of church and state. They do not participate in the military, politics, or oaths. They also practice foot washing as an ordinance, and some wear plain clothing as a sign of simplicity12
Baptists, on the other hand, have more diversity in their views on war, government, and social issues. Some Baptists are pacifists, while others support military service and political involvement. Some Baptists are conservative, while others are progressive. Some Baptists practice foot washing, while others do not. Some Baptists wear plain clothing, while others do not12
Another difference between Baptists and Mennonites is the mode of baptism. Most Baptists believe that baptism should be by immersion, which means that the person is fully submerged in water. They believe that this symbolizes the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ, and the washing away of sins12
Mennonites, however, have more flexibility in their mode of baptism. Some Mennonites baptize by immersion, while others baptize by pouring or sprinkling water over the person’s head. They believe that the mode of baptism is not as important as the meaning of baptism, which is a sign of repentance, faith, and commitment to Christ and his church12
So, as you can see, Baptists and Mennonites are not exactly alike, but they do share some common ground. If you want to learn more about them, you can visit these websites:
