Baptism makes you wet. It doesn’t make you a Christian. Faith in Jesus does that.

So, then, God is sending Christians, part of the body of Christ to hell because they don’t measure up?

Strange god Catholics have that would send His own children to hell.

"Strange god Catholics have that would send His own children to hell."

I am sorry for whatever is in your heart that would lead you to make that kind of accusation about fellow Christians. I sense that somewhere inside of you there is a need for forgiving those who you believe hurt you. The forgiveness is not for them, but for you. A lack of forgiveness and cause not only spiritual sickness but physical sickness as well. God sends no one to hell, it is the consequence of our own choices. Choose wisely out of love, not anger or hatred.

"But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins." - Matthew 6:15

Peace be with you

Exactly. And JESUS is The Word. Catholic faith is in man - with it's man made teachings/traditions and they are not Christian as mormons and muslims aren't either. What a hoax 'man' has pulled on them.

Christian's believe and have faith in Jesus ALONE.

“There are not more than 100 people in the world who truly hate the Catholic Church, but there are millions who hate what they perceive to be the Catholic Church. ....As a matter of fact, if we Catholics believed all of the untruths and lies which were said against the Church, we probably would hate the Church a thousand times more than they do.”

Bishop Fulton Sheen
