Which branch of Christianity do you consider to be the true one?

It is true that I am ignorant of many types of Christianity in which I was not raised. However, if you don’t recognize that the claims I’m refuting are exactly what a huge number of American Evangelical Christians believe, then perhaps you are ignorant to some parts of Christianity as well.

I am aware there are apologetics that answer all the questions I raised. I simply don’t find them convincing, and in the interest of keeping the article at a halfway-readable length, I presented my final take on these topics rather than refuting every crummy answer I’ve heard.

Of course, everyone has cognitive biases. Everyone trusts information that they haven’t personally verified, and everyone can be prone to following a herd mentality and adopting us-against-them points of view.

But to claim that everyone is religious makes the definition of the word “religious” meaningless. Religion is a belief in the supernatural, and there are certainly a great many people who don’t have a belief in the supernatural.
