Anyone who died a natural death is thought to go to Neli, a place below the earth which looks very much like the Apa Tani valley. On the way to Neli the dead come to the house of Nelkiri, the guardian of the underworld, and there they meet their kinsmen and friends who preceded them in death... Though Neli is a real underworld, it has no gloomy associations but is thought to be a good and happy place. " |

Since the mid-sixteenth century, several hundred smaller (some are very small) splits have occurred in the Apostolic Church. Creating this catch-all category was solely for practical reasons. For instance, many of these churches have a 'cross-pollination' of Apostolic streams... Distinguishing Characteristics: To the best of my knowledge, all of these Churches still uphold the common points of the Apostolic Church mentioned above, Apostolic succession (historic episcopate)... majority hold the Nicene Creed as the prime statement of faith, except for a few embracing Gnosticism/Theosophy. Otherwise, the Churches vary greatly in viewpoints and disciplines... Independent Churches from the Catholic/Orthodox/Anglican streams: In spite of approx. 300 denominations, mostly small (but a few large ones--e.g. the Byzantine Catholic Church [non-papal], and the True Orthodox) total worldwide membership probably does not exceed 18,000,000.
