I'm Catholic. Originally, I chose Catholicism because my parents raised me in the Catholic faith. This, however, is not the only reason I stayed. I've done some research on my religion as well as other "protestant" religions, and I find Catholicism to be the one that makes the most sense. It feels right to me. It is the first form of Christianity there ever was, and it can be traced all the way back to Christ, when Jesus decided to appoint Peter as the first Pope of his new church on earth. I've attended many different kinds of Christian churches, and although I respect them, I just prefer Catholic masses. In Catholic Mass, you receive the Eucharist every week compared to protestant churches, who receive the bread and wine usually once a month. Also, they don't believe that the bread and wine truly becomes the body and blood of Christ, so they are not truly consuming the Eucharist, just a representation of it. Anyway, there's my two cents. I'm not saying other Christian religions are no good, I respect them, for they believe in Jesus Christ. I only wanted to express why I prefer Catholicism over Protestant religions. Thanks for listening!

I'm a Catholic, it's technically not a sect. I choose this because it presents the Truth of the Gospel in it's fullness, as it was founded by Christ.

Bismillāhir-Raúmānir-Raúeem

******I'll just show u some facts with SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCES, it does not mean to offend anyone or any religion:**********

QUESTION 4 CHRISTIANS: CHRISTIANS DO NOT BELIEVE IN PUNISHMENT 4 THEIR SINS ON THE JUDGMENT DAY ALL THEY KNOW IS THE CONFESSION BOX? :-/
, THAT IS WHY THEY R SOCIALLY SELF DESTROYED & BAD. ? :-/
VISIT = http://www.religion-cults.com/Christianity/denominations.htm CATHOLICS R CHRISTIANS TO, NO MATTER ALL CHRISTIANS FOLLOW SAINT PAUL (THE GREAT MISINTERPRETER) & NOT JESUS (pbuh) WHO IS THE PROPHET OF ISLAM.

Some Christians to run from ISLAM say that “CATHOLICS” are not Christians, so don’t talk about them, just visit this = www.religionfacts.com = Another prove that “CATHOLICS” are also followers of SAINT PAUL and not not not the JESUS (pbuh) WHO IS THE PROPHET OF ISLAM.

Roman Catholic Church or Pope talks about “Peace, Mercy, Tolerance & patience, somebody tell them about their past of giving punishments to people like burning at stake, Purgatory, selling Indulgence etc.

Is Roman Catholic Church still selling indulgences? They were cruel & brutal in doing so in the past, r they still doing so for MONEY? {HARSH FACT FILE}

Acc. To Roman Catholic “Church” is the necessary mediator between the God & the individual Christian, it means in Christianity God need church to deal with his own creation. It is again degrading of God by Christianity.

In Roman Catholic Church clergy should be celibate.

Martin Luther derived his believes of Christianity from Saint Paul, to testify Read book THE 100 2nd Edition's Page 124: This book has written by a CHRISTIAN (Michael Hart). Why he did not derive his believes from Jesus (pbuh)?

Martin Luther a devoted follower of st. Paul’s (Christianity) kicked the Roman Catholic Church in 1510 to make a new sect of Christianity named “PROTESTANT”.

Martin Luther originator of the Protestant sect of Christianity was extremely intolerant of those who disagreed with him on religious matters.

Martin Luther originator of the Protestant sect of Christianity was ferociously anti-Semitic & extraordinary viciousness of his writings about the Jews. It certainly helped to pay the way for the HITLER era.

Martin Luther was a great follower of Saint Paul who used to hate WOMEN (1 Corinthians 7:8-9, 1 Timothy 2:11-13 and 1 Corinthians11:7-9) but Martin Luther did get marry with Nun & he had 6 children.

A Protestants sect has more sects within.
John Calvin (well known Protestant leader) was an intolerant man, and those whom he considered heretics received short shrift in Geneva, To testify Read book THE 100 2nd Edition's Page 283: This book has written by a CHRISTIAN (Michael Hart).
John Calvin (well known Protestant leader) his famous victims (there were quite few) was Michael Servetus, a Spanish physician and theologian who did not believe in the doctrine of the Trinity, He was burnt at the stake (in 1553). To testify Read book THE 100 2nd Edition's Page 283: This book has written by a CHRISTIAN (Michael Hart).

Christian’s wars within: 30 years war in Germany, which lasted from 1618 to 1648 were incredibly bloody.
Charles 5 & Philip 2 were ardent Catholics who, during their long reign, used the wealth of the new world to finance wars against Protestant states of northern Europe. To testify Read book THE 100 2nd Edition's Page 325: This book has written by a CHRISTIAN (Michael Hart).

Repent before its too late.

I believed in Christ, without a Catholic or Protestant around. I found that I didn't need Catholic or Protestant. Jesus said to believe in Him, and then I wouldn't be condemned. That is closest to Protestant teachings, though it is not all Protestants who teach this.

I was atheist. Then I was protestant. Now I am Catholic because God led me here.

I am neither. I am a called out, new person in Jesus Christ. I am called out from all the "isms" of Christian religions. I just serve Christ. I attend a Baptist Church but I don't let the Denomination define who I am. I let my relationship with Christ define me.
