Does anyone have a diagram showing the development of the various demoninations of Christianity and how they developed over time?
I am sure it will remind me of the classic evolutionary tree of life. I want to see the schism between the Roman Catholic and Greek Orthodox Churchs. I also interested in the schism between the Roman Catholic and Lutheran Churches. It will be interesting to see how Protestantism branched out so much. |

I think this is what you're looking for. I was really curious to see what it looked like, and the unlikely search of "tree christianity" in google brought me to the link. Cheers |

I wonder if there's anything that shows the various memetic mutations.
I also wonder if there's anything that show extinct memes? |

Assuming a big bang or single starting point model!
A whole series of different beliefs got pulled and pushed and co-evolved and probably had a unified view of history imposed. |

In medieval textbooks, the all-important Arbor porphyriana
("Porphyrian Tree") illustrates his logical classification of substance. To this day, taxonomists benefit from Porphyry's Tree in classifying everything from plants to animals to insects to whales. |
