Oh gosh, there are actually those who continue to insist that Catholics practise tithe collection, sigh.

Not realising that the more they insist, the more foolish they look.

hi position..

well i give you a shorter summary.. lest you get sleepy.. heheh zzzzzzzzzzz.....heh

Catholic church..(RC) founder: Jesus Christ.. 1st pope.. St peter.. current pope no: 265 (to be cfrm) Pope benedict 16th..

Christian church:(CC) (mainly anglican, methodist, lutheran etc.) late 15th or early 16th century.. spilt from the catholic church due to diff in theology and bible interpretation. among others..

beliefs: (RC) believe in One God.. the Holy trinity, i.e Father, Son (i.e Jesus) and Holy spirit..i.e 3 person in one God.. (the Trinitarian) . Teachings of Jesus christ from his time with the apostles.. handed till today. from 10 commandments, sacred tradition (matters regarding faith not recorded in the bible handed from apostles' time or early church till today). The magesterium is the official teachings of the catholic church.. Honor the saints. models of christian living.. eg.. st teresa of avila.. st pio.. just to name a few..

CC: belief in one God (trinitarian) but teachings based on bible .. or sola scripture.. almost literally..

Sacraments: they are of visible sign of God's grace on the person.. eg baptism..

RC: has 7 sacraments: baptism, confirmation, Holy Eucharist, Holy orders (for becoming priest), Holy matrimony (marriage), confession of sins or reconciliation of sins, and anointing of the sick or extreme unction in old days.

CC: mostly 2 .. namely baptism and matrimony..

Holy communion: RC: real body and blood of Jesus christ in the form of a host when it is consecrated by the priest during mass i.e service.

CC: holy communion is symbolic..

hope that helps.. just a few .. there are a few others.. if you are keen to know the faith .. google : catechism of the Catholic Church.. .or CCC

blogs also can help.. google on faith issues: Fr Luke Fong, Fr aloysius Ong (life crosses) and Fr . stephen Yim .. all from singapore diocese.. will give you into insight of the faith..
