I wouldn't say Christianity is one religion, its more a group of similar-themed or similar-based religions.

Well, I don't think Christianity is one religion, but others might. And some might consider Muslim divisions like Sheit and Sunni to be one religion. It's a matter of perspective.

Hmm... Interesting...
I think Christianity and Muslism are big religions with subreligions in them...
There are "subreligions" in many other religions too.

Roman Catholocism is the largest single sect.
Protestantism is larger but it is a group of religions that have little in common other than a deep hatred for Roman Catholics.

The biggest subreligions are definitely Sunni Islam and Roman Catholic Christianity.
Many Christian denominations are still counted as Christian, since ultimately it's the teaching of Christ they count as the most valuable- even if they don't think Christ was the son of god. Like Unitarianism and Quakerism- still Christians, just wildly different from other types of Christianity.
Islam is a little different- Shia technically worship a totally different prophet than Sunni.
Chiristianity and Islam are one religion if you ask me along with Judism
Well, in that they all contain the Old Testament in their holy texts, yes. But Judaism is still waiting for a messiah whereas most Christians and Muslims have already found theirs.

It is a copy of one of the Syriac Orthodox Churches, just in the confines of Micronationalism. It follows Orthodox right not unlike the Greek and Russian Orthodox churches, just only in Aramaic. I'm sure there are far more differences however that Comrade Max here shall fill you in about. ;)
