Catholic is the true church of Christ?
Well, The New Testament was written by Jewish-Christian apostles.
None of them are Catholics because there was no Roman Catholic Religion at the time.
The fact is that the Catholic Religion did not exist at the time of Jesus so Peter had nothing to do with something which did not exist.

No.
Christianity is related to the teachings of Christ, not a papacy.

I'm not sure what "Romanism" is, but history plainly reveals that the Catholic Church is the original Christian Church founded by Jesus Christ for all mankind, and that the Catholic Church was the only Christian Church on earth for 1,000 years after Christ. The Bible further tells us that the Catholic Church is the only Christian Church Christ ever intended to exist, and that He never authorized the founding of any other churches in addition to the one He personally founded upon the Apostles. In fact, He warned against the inevitable doctrinal chaos that would result when men violated God's will and founded other churches - and today we see just how prophetic that warning was.

No. The Romans had a different religion before Constantine declared Christianity the official religion of Rome in 313 A.D.

NOPE!
TOO Twisted to still classify!
Instead of Jesus being THE GOD and the ONLY saviour the Vatican and gang have included That Church and Mary.
JESUS is THE GOD!
1 GOD became a man !
2 HE was perfect in all ways !
3 HE was seen by angels as HE was
originally (THE GOD), and as a man !
4 HE taught the non Jewish ( as well as many Jews) !
5 HIS teachings were (and are) believed by MANY people !
6 HE returned to HIS place - we call that place heaven !
This is The Entire Story required to become
A TRUE CHRISTIAN.

No. But Hellenism is thick in Christianity.
And Constantine did not make Christianity the Religion of Rome... he simply made it a legal religion in Rome. Constantine was a Pagan until his death... why would he make a religion different from his own the "Official" religion of HIS Realm?

"Romanism" is an offensive term for Roman Catholicism. Like "papistry" or "popery," it should not be used by anyone who isn't extremely prejudiced and ignorant.
If you are asking about Roman Catholicism, it certainly is the same as Christianity. Other Christians are usually called Protestants, though there are more than two divisions.

If you meant to say "roman catholicism", of course it is. It was the original codified christian theology. Every protestant denomination has its roots in catholicism.
At least use the correct term and show some intelligence.
