I know that quite a few people haven't liked the style of the contents pages and overview pages in WikiChristian. I've liked how they have allowed for a nice tree-structure with topics and also how they've allowed for clear links to opinion articles. Still, I see why people don't like the style.

Visible church
@Graham You added: "Protestant churches, especially those with Baptist leanings in theology, tend to emphasize the invisible church, whereas the Orthodox and Roman Catholic churches have often emphasized the visible church." For me this sentence makes no sense. From what I understand Protestants claim that the invisible Church is something different from the visible church whereas Catholics (and Orthodox?
