Minecraft Versions as Christian Denominations - This make sense?
Java: Protestantism -
Unmodded Java: Mainline Protestants
Modded Java: Evangelicals

Legacy Console: Orthodoxy -
communion of the Xbox, Playstation, and Nintendo autocephalous churches, all under a common tradition.

Bedrock: Catholicism -
Pocket Editon - Latin Church
Xbox, Playstation, Nintendo Bedrock releases - Eastern Catholic Churches (all broke off from their legacy console communions to join the Bedrock pontiff)

Java Edition โ€“ Protestantism
Key Themes: Decentralization, Personal Interpretation, Reformation, Fragmentation

Java Edition is the original revelation โ€” the "Scripture alone" of Minecraft. It emerged unbound by consoles or monetization systems, much like how early Protestant reformers sought freedom from ecclesiastical hierarchy.

Unmodded Java = Mainline Protestantism
Adheres to the core text (vanilla Minecraft), trusting that the original design is sufficient for a fulfilling experience.

Emphasizes stability, ethics, and tradition within the bounds of reform.

Examples: Methodism, Lutheranism, Presbyterianism โ€” not flashy, but deep and enduring.

Modded Java = Evangelicalism / Non-Denominationalism
Believes that a personal relationship with the code (or the Creator) is central.

Embraces a highly individualized experience: magic systems, space travel, industrialization, new dimensions.

Modpacks are like evangelical megachurches โ€” dynamic, immersive, and often overwhelming.

Just as Evangelicals vary widely in beliefs, modded servers can be anything from hardcore realism to anime roleplay.

Java's gift is freedom โ€” and with that, a thousand servers and doctrinal interpretations. Some call it chaos. Others, reformation.

Legacy Console Edition โ€“ Eastern Orthodoxy
Key Themes: Tradition, Autocephaly, Conservatism, Discontinuity with Modernization

Legacy Console editions were regional churches bound to their hardware: Xbox 360, PS3, Wii U โ€” each one operating semi-independently but sharing a liturgical structure (i.e., interface, update cycles, and game mechanics). Like Orthodoxy, they:

Emphasized ritual consistency โ€” everything from crafting interfaces to tutorial worlds followed strict templates.

Received occasional updates from 4J Studios (their โ€œPatriarchateโ€), but the timeline was often irregular and eventually ceased altogether โ€” much like some Orthodox churchesโ€™ resistance to modernization.

Maintained spiritual distinction from the Bedrock Church, refusing to adopt its universalizing codebase.

These were autocephalous churches, unique in culture yet united in form. They were never meant to reform โ€” only to preserve.

Bedrock Edition โ€“ Roman Catholicism
Key Themes: Universality, Central Authority, Tradition with Innovation, Synodality

Bedrock Edition represents the Catholic Church: one universal version, governed from a centralized seat of authority โ€” Mojang/Microsoft (aka, the โ€œVatican of Codeโ€). All platforms โ€” mobile, PC, console โ€” are brought into communion under one codebase and rule set.

Pocket Edition = Latin (Roman) Rite
The original form of Bedrock, like the Latin Church, started in humble circumstances โ€” the small, minimalistic Pocket Edition.

Over time, it became the foundation of Bedrock theology โ€” everything else is built on this original rite.

From mobile beginnings, it now defines the core of Bedrock liturgy.

Bedrock Console Ports = Eastern Catholic Churches
Formerly part of the Legacy Console Orthodox Communion, these churches (Xbox One, PS4, Switch) entered into full communion with Bedrock.

They retain platform-specific quirks (custom UI, local performance issues), but accept the universal doctrines of Bedrock: the Marketplace, Realms, crossplay.

Like the Maronite or Ukrainian Catholic Churches, they maintain tradition while acknowledging the authority of the Bedrock "pontiff."

Bedrock is one, holy, catholic, and cross-platform. It is the church of Marketplace indulgences, the Realms confessional, and the unified codebase

Sola scriptura is a funny concept. Not even the main gospels are coherent. And the scriptures didn't fall from heaven, they were translated, modified over 2000 years. They are a result of tradition. And there needs to be an authority who decided which part of the bible is bullshit and shouldn't be canon

One thing all denominations agree on is that we should judge by the fruit of the tree, โ€œyou will know them by their fruitโ€, then let's compare the fruit that the 2 most important denominations have given us:
Catholicism:
>Practiced by violent 3rd world shit skins mostly
>Created Mexicans
>The fringe branches of catholicism are a syncretism between black magic, native practices and sacrificial rituals to Santa Muerte
Protestantism:
>Practiced in white countries, 1st World countries
>Lay the foundations for democracy, natural science and America
>Mormonism, the most relevant fringe branch of protestantism is a cult to American exceptionalism that teaches racial consciousness and exhorts white people to have children
Conclussion: Protestantism is based, catholicism is brown

Catholic was the OG from which the two splinter groups came out of, Orthodox (east) and then in the west later Protestants. They have the same root of Catholic in them directly that's why.

Get out catholic. If you can't point your reasonings out from the scripture itself through quotes and reasonings afterwards that play with them without adding any verbiage that wasn't there then you fail to understand the scripture and are making up lies yourself.
> This church (Catholicism) was created by God because Peter/Paul etc etc etc.
Never stated it was the Catholic church that was formed then, there was no name for the church only Apostles of Jesus Christ and the Followers of Jesus Christ. Man, get your ass out of your head canon.

Wrong, because Protestants modded Catholic church concepts for their own view on the bible, Orthodox wanted to maintain the original Catholic church dogma but were given a ban/excommunication due political reasons nothing else really.

Java Edition โ€“ Catholicism
Key Themes: Authority, Tradition, Development

The Catholic church of Minecraft.
Java carries an unbroken lineage back to the first versions, yet it is not frozen in time.
Through official updates (like the Magisterium), doctrine continues to unfold: caves deepen, oceans expand, mobs multiply.
Players recognize the authority of the core devs, even when updates spark debate.

It is Catholicism in code: ancient, authoritative, but still alive and adapting.

Legacy Console Edition โ€“ Eastern Orthodoxy
Key Themes: Tradition, Autocephaly, Preservation

Legacy Console was the Orthodox communion: Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo โ€” each autocephalous but sharing the same liturgy.
Updates once flowed from their patriarch (4J Studios), but development stopped.
What remains is a timeless rite: tutorials, UIs, and mechanics preserved like ancient chant.
Orthodoxy resists change; Legacy Console endures by being unchanging.

Bedrock Edition โ€“ Protestantism
Key Themes: Reformation, Accessibility, Multiplicity

The Reformation of Minecraft.
Where Java looks to tradition, Bedrock throws the doors open to everyone.
It runs on every device, in every language โ€” no central authority, just accessibility.
Crossplay, Realms, and the Marketplace are its evangelical revivals: populist, modern, and easy to enter.

Bedrock thrives not by continuity, but by proliferation.
