As the "Catholic or Christian" thread was too narrow. I expect some of these will get no votes and that "Other" will get several. I just felt some forms of Christianity have historical importance so would be neat to see in a poll even if no one here is of them. Also I wanted some left out on purpose because "Other" can be a neat opening to explain if you have somewhat unique views of the faith.

I'll tell you what... If you'll tell me whether you left LDS/Mormon out on purpose or not, I'll vote on your poll. I'm not trying to be obstinate. I just thought it was odd that you'd mention the Church of Christ under the category of Restorationists and not the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. We are generally considered to be the largest of the Restorationist groups, so either this was an oversight (in which case I'd vote "Restorationist" or else you see the word Restorationist differently than I do. Would you mind clarifying?

You could have made the poll public. Many a time I am unsure which side every member bats for, barring the few Catholics here

I was worried mentioning Mormon could lead to debates about where Mormonism fit, but I see not mentioning Mormon does the same. I didn't mention Jehovah's Witnesses for similar reason.
It looks like I'm too late to edit it. I think I did consider putting "etc" on Restorationist. I missed many important Restorationist groups it seems. I guess Seventh-Day Adventists and Jehovah's Witnesses are also sometimes classed as Restorationist.

Okay. I'll go ahead and vote for Restorationist, because that's definitely where we fit in.
