Do you understand that a heresy is a doctrine against Christ. There you go.

Catholics aren't Christian? That's a new one for me. Catholics are the oldest and largest of the Christian churches. Christians are those who follow the teachings of Christ and that includes the Catholics. It doesn't include the large numbers of Old Testament Fundamentalists in the USA who call themselves Christian but who do not practice love, tolerance and acceptance of one's fellow man - which is the essence of Christianity.

Let me guess, the questioner is a Roman Catholic, a papist.
First, there is the [Christian] bible. Does it pages contain a pope, cardinals, church fathers, Mary the mother of God who is without sin, etc? No. Protestantism accepts only the bible as it authority.
As for the others, are they considered Christian? Do they believe that the bible is the word of God spoken through the prophets? By this definition, Roman Catholicism is a heresy.
The only heresy is your constant attack against non Roman Catholic. Have you even read the bible. I doubt it.

Most of the religions that call themselves Christian aren't even Christian. It's so stupid. Mormons are considered part of the Christian realm, but they don't even believe Jesus was the Son of God. The list goes on and on. Doesn't make sense.
I never heard of those other names you listed above.

to be Christian means that you accept Jesus Christ as your savior so it includes a lot of different branches.
