What did you say that shows you reject your own catechism? How about: No....if you reject the Catholic church, you have rejected Christ.......you don't get to do it your own way. You're a smart guy. You can figure it out.

Christ, personally, founded the Catholic Church on the Apostles.

Those who reject the Catholic Church reject Christ and the fact that He founded it.

Therefore, those who reject the Catholic Church, reject Christ.

See, if you pay attention it is real easy.

It isn’t me who fails to pay attention here, TC. Take a gander at your OWN catechism - just as I suggested - and explain how you can adamantly assert those who reject Catholicism must also reject Jesus Christ when your OWN catechism states:

818 “However, one cannot charge with the sin of the separation those who at present are born into these communities [that resulted from such separation] and in them are brought up in the faith of Christ, and the Catholic Church accepts them with respect and affection as brothers.... All who have been justified by faith in Baptism are incorporated into Christ; they therefore have a right to be called Christians, and with good reason are accepted as brothers in the Lord by the children of the Catholic Church.”272 (1271)

Like I said, you are doing it your own way when you say things that contradict your OWN catechism.
