So Jesus founded a church, His Body, that allowed people to become a member of His Body even if they didn’t believe in Him...As long as they got sprinkled with water that you guys call baptism...

Is this how you guys are going to join with Izlam, just get them muzlims sprinkled with some ‘holy’ water, no need for Jesus???

A Catholic can become a Christian without Jesus...What a whacko religion...

Mk:16:16: "He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved: but he that believeth not shall he condemned."

A Catholic can become a Christian . . .

No Catholic needs to become a Christian because all Catholics ARE Christian.

Its unfortunate to see Christian Groups competing with one another. There is far too much dogma and the differences simply pull Christians apart from one another.If you follow the teachings of Jesus and follow the commandments,loving God and your neighbor as yourself,you are a Christian in every sense of the word. I think Jesus would be very saddened to see so many of these denominations trying to prove that their particular dogma is greater than anothers. The essence of Christianity is Love and adherence to the teachings of our Lord.Its time to put differences behind us and emphasize the areas upon which we all agree.

As a Catholic I have never heard of such a thing. Yes you must believe in Jesus and Catholics do.
