Catholics are Christians. We believe in the Holy Trinity and the Resurrected Christ. It is our duty to preach to all nations and we rejoice when our brothers and sisters come home to the Faith. It’s not about numbers. It’s about souls.

“I believe and profess all that the holy Catholic Church believes, teaches, and proclaims to be revealed by God.”

If people believe the Catholic and church and all it’s rules, that’s not Christian, there’s a huge difference.

I’m not going to delve into the theology of it, but simply read your bible, the one God gave us, and you will see for yourself.

Catholics are Christians.

Catholics are not by default Christians, nor are Christians by default Catholic.

The terms are not interchangeable.

Being a Catholic is being the member of a denomination.

Being a follower of Jesus, not a church, is what makes one a Christian.

If Catholics are Christians then Ted Kennedy was a Christian. Chavez was a Christian. Pelosi is a Christian. Kerry is a Christian.

Really?
