You are of a Protestant tradition that rejects the Jews. Catholics accept the Jews as elder brethren.

Now... do Roman Catholics worship the same "God" as Muslims, as is stated in CCC 841, knowing that Muslims do not worship the God of Judeo-Christianity?

Can you answer that?

Catholics worship and adore the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, who is "The God" that both the Jews and Moslems (as well as others like the Samaritans) also profess to worship and adore. There is only One God, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. There is only one begotten Son of God. There is only one Messiah. His name in English is Jesus and He is coming to judge the living and the dead. Of his kingdom there will be no end. There is only one holy catholic apostolic church. If you imagine otherwise you are mistaken.

Define reject.

Define "accept as elder brethren".

Do catholics also recognize muslims as "elder" brethren?

If anyone professes faith in Christ, they are received by other Christians. Be they Jew or Gentile.

You know, roman catholics could clear up a lot of confusion if you dropped CCC 841.

To this day, I still haven't see a satisfactory answer as to why that was included in the CCC.

There is only one holy catholic apostolic church. If you imagine otherwise you are mistaken.

And it is not found in the RCC as we see today due to the utter reliance on Mary for salvation and the advancement of her as mediatrix, advocate, etc.

Here's a hint: Mohammedans (Muslims) do NOT worship or profess to adore the same God as Jews and Christians. Allah has NONE of the attributes of the one true living God. If you don't believe me, try asking a Mohammedan. I have. And I was told in no uncertain terms. Try reading the Qu'ran if you don't believe me. Try to find the similarities. You won't find any.

There is only one catholic (little c, by the way) church -- the body of believers. It's NOT the Roman Catholic Church. And to quote you, if you imagine otherwise, you are mistaken. The Roman Catholic Church's CCC is filled with error and contradiction. CCC 841 is the prime example.

You said "Catholics worship and adore the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, who is "The God" that both the Jews and Moslems (as well as others like the Samaritans) also profess to worship and adore." Do YOU worship the same "God" as Mohammedans? If you do, you are in agreement with the Roman Catholic Church, but not in agreement with God Almighty; if you don't, then you're in rebellion against the Roman Catholic Church, but possibly in accord with God (if you believe and trust in Jesus Christ (and nothing else) for your salvation.

So.... do YOU?

You are of a Protestant tradition that rejects the Jews. Catholics accept the Jews as elder brethren.

Actually.... no. But since you're making the claim, you go right ahead and prove it.
