Re: Is the Church of Christ a religious cult?

I drew up a rough draft and I was going to have a civil war break out between the people opposed to Sunday School versus those who had it, with lots of executions for "false doctrine". In the end I was going to have the people in Church of Christ Land so fed up with themselves they welcom...
