Are you sure you're following the True Christianity?

I looked up how many denominations of just Christianity there are in the US. The answer was:

There is no single, definitive number for Christian denominations in the United States, as it depends on the classification, but sources suggest there are over 200, with some estimates as high as 1,500 sects and even thousands of denominations if smaller groups are included.

When I look up how many churches in the US, it says:

There are an estimated 350,000 to 380,000 churches in America, with figures often fluctuating based on new data and different counting methods. The Hartford Institute for Religion Research places the number of congregations around 370,000, with the majority being Protestant.
Estimates: Various sources provide slightly different numbers, but most fall in the range of 350,000 to 380,000 congregations.

Distribution: A single congregation for every 1,000 Americans is a rough estimate, but the distribution varies significantly by region and population growth.

Given that each individual church relies on the pastor or minister and their interpretation of the Bible and what they want to focus on, that could mean that every church is its own sect. While they may share main base ideology, the interpretation is up to each leader of that church. You can easily say that at least 70% of those 350,000+ churches are their own sect.

So are you sure you are following the "True Doctrine" ™?

No one can really say they follow True Christianity as something scientific can be proven to be true.

Most religions follow what they believe to be true. That’s where I fall.

@BillyMack I agree, but, there are a lot of people out there who claim to be "True Christians", but probably couldn't tell you what denomination their church really is.

A lot of "Christians" who are all about Charlie Kirk believe they are the "true chosen".

@FoxyQueen From what I've noticed, most Christians that say they are "true Christians" are the born again types, the evangelical.

@JimboSaturn Same. They really don't know the Bible, let alone have read it. I've read it twice in my lifetime, both KJV and modern.
@BillyMack Whereas science follows what it believes not to be true? Most followers of science don't just as most Christians don't. They don't really believe in their own ideology. It's fake. Dumb. But it has nothing to do with religion or science.
