Catholic/Christian...?

I am a Catholic, but when someone asks me what is my religion. I answer , Christian. Yes we are.Catholics are Christians. You are a Catholic Christian. Catholic, Baptist, Lutheran, etc... All from one family.

Would you ask a man or a woman if he were a human! No. same goes.

"I am as good or bad by the road I chose to walk, not by the road my brethren in the past did. For when the time come to be judged. Our Lord will judge us based on what each and everyone lived out life, not by what others lived. Live well, Love one another, and let Peace be the guiding lite to your life."

You should answer whatever you feel more comfortable with.

Catholics are Christians. You pick either one, and either is accurate.

May You All have a very Happy New Year, and many more.

Yes, it is the same thing. Christian - someone who believes in Christ. So a Catholic is a Christian, who practices the Catholic Doctrine.

Baptists, Methodists and Lutherans are Christians.

I am a Catholic Christian. When some one asks you what religion you are - Catholic.

Here in the South some people have no idea that Catholics are Christians.

All Catholic Christians are Christians.

All Non-Catholic Christians are Christians.

Some Christians are Catholic Christians.

Some Christians are Non-Catholic Christians.

"What separates us as believers in Christ is much less than what unites us." (Pope John XXIII)

Almost all important doctrine is completely agreed upon between Catholic Christians and other Christians.

Here is the joint declaration of justification by Catholics (1999), Lutherans (1999), and Methodists (2006):

By grace alone, in faith in Christ's saving work and not because of any merit on our part, we are accepted by God and receive the Holy Spirit, who renews our hearts while equipping us and calling us to good works.

There are many minor doctrine issues and some major cultural traditional differences which, I believe, do not matter that much.

A Catholic worships and follows Christ in the tradition of Catholicism which, among other things, recognizes that Christ made Peter the leader of His new Church and Pope Benedict XVI is Peter's direct successor.

For more information, see the Catechism of the Catholic Church: http://www.usccb.org/catechism/text/index.htm

With love in Christ.

The followers of Christ were called Christians, and they were the early disciples. When Jesus named Peter as the first Pope, he said: Thou art Peter and upon this rock I will build my Church. Sometime around 325 AD, St. Ambrose is thought to be the first person to name the Church Catholic, since it means Universal (for all peoples.) So, Catholics follow Christ and are Christians according to the Gospel, but believe in a Church that teaches the Way, the Truth and the Life according to Sacred Tradition, as One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic. These four marks establish the eternal Covenant with Christ as priestly. You are a Catholic Christian, living out the Covenant in Christ and preaching the Gospel by the example shown in your daily life.

You can be both... Just because you go to a Catholic school doesn't mean that you have to do what they do. You're a Christian when you became born again... believe in you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raise Him from the dead... and confess that your a sinner and your only way for salvation is Jesus Christ... and then receive Him as your Lord and Savior.

Catholic is a denominaton and Christianity is more like a relationship.

You are a Catholic Christian. There are other types of Christians.

If anybody asks if you're Catholic or Christian, just say, "Both."

Catholics are Christian. Christian means you believe in Jesus Christ. Not all Christians are Catholic.

There are many resolved answers here on yahoo that talk about this subject, along with many varied beliefs.

Please forgive me when I tell you that if you are a catholic, you are not a Christian. Here's why. More that a thousand years ago the Roman catholic church 'converted' the pagan Roman world. In reality it was not the pagan world that was Christianized, but it was the Roman catholic church that was paganised. They have not a single 'holy day' or feast, or festival that is in anyway Christian. What happened was that the catholic church took all of the pagan 'holy days', feast days, and festivals, their suns-day (first day) worship, their gods (made the saints, etc.), their 'holy' places, shrines, etc. and 'Christianized' them by giving the 'christian' names'. The catholics even went so far as to change the 10 commandments of God! They did away with the 2nd and split the 10th (to preserve the number), and changed the 4th so that it would advocate what ever day you want to worship on.

Catholics are Christians.

I'm a christian but i do not follow the catholic church.
