What I believe

 
Many of the religious movement profiles listed below were developed with the assistance of students at the University of Virginia (U of V). The name of the student who created each page appears at the end of that page. For those profiles developed by the U of V students, following the link will take the reader to the U of V web page. Other links will take the reader to pages developed specicifically for this site.
