Another difference (correct me if I am wrong) is that the CoC does the Lord's Supper(communion) every Sunday. Do the Baptists?

As per Biblical instruction, the churches of Christ observe the Lord's Supper on the first day of the week. Every first day of the week.

LoL, Ok, so I was generalizing about our core beliefs..there are a lot of differences... But what I meant was that if you believe the church of Christ is a cult you would have to believe the Baptist are too.

Yes, the CoC does serve the Lord's Supper (communion) every Sunday. I am no expert on Baptist beliefs, but this is what I think other differences are. The CoC believes you have to be baptized to be added to the church, for remmission of sins and to be saved (Mark 15:15-16). Some branches of the Baptist church may also believe this (maybe Missionary Baptists?), but I'm not sure the standard Southern Baptists do. Some Baptists believe the Calvinistic doctrine "once saved always saved." They don't believe a christian can stray if they truly have accepted Christ. And of course the use of instrumental music in worship.
