List of Christians:

Many people define "[[Christianity]]" in mutually exclusive ways.  Virtually every sect and denomination that calls itself "Christian" has had its Christianity denied by other sects and denominations.  This is a list of people who are ''notable'' due to their ''professed'' Christianity or for their influence on the popularity or development of some group of professed Christians.
