If you believe in jesus and the bible (your a moron if you do by the way), then your a CHRISTIAN. Why do you morons keep saying that catholics are not christians?

I believe in God and Jesus but I am not a Christian. Thank you for not categorizing me. I cannot be contained within your limited perspective. Nor can the remainder of humanity for that matter.

What difference would it make to you. You have already came to your conclusions, anyway. To bad you wouldn't take the time to help the poor morons out there, by shedding some light on your question. I would assume that you already know the answer, and you are just wanting to torment the poor morons with these types of questions. That's cruel!
I realize that my attempt here will be futile at best, but here we go. Both Catholics and Christians believe in Jesus and the Bible. Catholics have a different structure in their beliefs compared to Christians. The Catholic Bible has more writings compared to what the Christians have, but, to keep it simple, both, at the core, believe in Jesus and the Bible. Both have, and will have , many people of their faith in Heaven. Christians do a great disservice in saying that the Catholics are wrong, they just view things differently.
Did you know that when hurricane Katrina hit the Gulf Coast, that the morons actually gave of themselves to help those who suffered. They provided more help, for a longer period of time then the Red Cross and FEMA combined. And here is the best part, they helped everyone that they could, both believers and non-believers. They didn't even try to force conversion on them in exchange for help. SILLY MORONS! It is called compassion.
Maybe you should rethink the moron thing.

Yes!!! I've had that argument a million times. Catholics fall under the umbrella of Christianity, therefore they are Christians. Catholics, Lutherans, Protestants etc. are a subset of Christianity, which is a subset of a religion. Why is that so hard to understand? Perhaps they think themselves better or different? But at the end of the day, their religion comes back to Jesus and the Bible; whatever their disagreements on certain issues.. Sigh. Good question though.

BECAUSE, in order to be a Christian, you must believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and died for the sins of the world... so whether you call yourself a Catholic or whatever, doesn't make you a Christian. Someone can be a Catholic and be a Christian, but on the other hand, someone can call themselves Catholic, but not believe!! Therefore, they are not Christians... just like, someone can call themselves a Baptist, but if the don't believe in the risen Lord, then they're not a Christian!!

First of all, it's rude to insult people for their religion. As to the Catholic thing, many Catholics operate under the 'sin all you want and then confess on Sunday' principal. That wasn't Christ's message.
P.S. I checked your profile and you don't have a contact. Not surprising considering all the Christian bashing you do. What happened? You get molested by a priest? Find a new topic hatemonger.

Number one if you don't believe in Christ then let's see how you feel when you have to stand before him on judgment day. Number two you have no right to judge anyone for their beliefs in God. Free country you know.
Number three the difference is to be a Christian you must believe that Christ was the son of God and he died for man kinds sins. Last time I checked Catholics believed that Christ was a disciple and not the son of God.

I think some people confuse the terms Christian with Protestant. Yes, Catholics are Christians, in that they do believe in Christ as part of the holy Trinity.

If you don't believe in Christ and the Bible then what do you believe in? Where is the meaning in your life? You are living to serve yourself and there is nothing in that. Someday you will see the truth and want the life He gives, I just pray that it isn't when you die and when you stand before the Lord, He is going to ask you what you have done for Him on this earth. Your answer is up to you. You can believe or end up in hell for all eternity.

More importantly, how is it that you would call anyone a moron when your grammar is terrible? If you want to use the conjuctive phrase of "you are", it is spelled "you're".
I agree, however, that Catholics are Christians.
