No, Protestant, er Christian disagreement here.

I add many Catholics will claim to be Christian but NO Christian will claim to be Catholic for the reasons stated in this post and others. Catholicism is simply not Biblical - an imitation of Christianity. I have ideas on who really heads the Catholic church ... it sure isn't Christ.

Many Protestants are Catholic. They were baptized in the Catholic Church.

Wrong. As a convert, I can tell you that my studies make your claim an outright lie. The Universal Church (Catholic = Universal) founded and led by Jesus Christ with the Apostolic Succession is the One True Church.

Well, Christ thinks he is. That trumps you quite nicely.

Why thank you! I now know that you can be safely ignored on many other issues, since you obviously don't bother to educate yourself before posting.

Catholicism is simply not Biblical

You wouldn't have the Bible if the Church hadn't assembled it and chosen what books are in the Canon.

I am interested in your statement that the beliefs of the Catholic Church are not Biblical.

Can you provide me two teachings that contradict the Bible?

Can you describe in a couple of sentences how we got the right books of the new testament together (when did this happen and by who)?
