All of the 35 largest Christian denominations should be denominations. "Christian (no denomination)" is not a denomination. "Protestant" is not a denomination.

But it is. A large segment of Americans claim to be Christian but don't adhere or participate in any large organized sect of Christianity. Arguably what Luther was after all along haha.

But if you really categorize American "Christians", it generally boils down to these.

Catholic, Anglican (English Catholic lite), Episcopal (American Anglican), Baptist (Anglican in the South), Presbyterian (Scottish Catholic in America). Protestant, Lutheran, Methodist, Unitarian.

The outliers being Mormons, Jehovah's Witness, and Mennonite (as they were isolated and restrictive versions of whatever came over from Europe during colonialization and imperialism later).

Protestant is a wide label yes, but it generally refers to any version of Christianity that agreed with Luther and split away from the Catholic Church. Lutheran is actually a specific version of that because of course people couldn't agree about how they disagreed with the Catholic Church.

How is Christian (no denomination) different from "Nondenominational"?
