Significant Christian Denominations

"Denominations" is used loosely, referring to associations of churches within a particular tradition, below the level of "branch" but still describing large, overarching bodies. For example, "Methodist" as opposed to "Protestant" or "Evangelical Methodist". This list definitely leaves out a bunch of the significant ones. Please take no offense.
