A mix of paganism and worship of the true God of the Bible is not Christian, it's called 'syncretism'. The Bible calls this behavior out numerous times. It doesn't matter what number of people call themselves, If it doesn't agree with the Word it is wrong.
The RCC isn't Christian. It's luciferian. Catholic priests and worshipers are, at the local level, Christians. They are being deceived by the central church into slowly adopting false beliefs and practices.
Easter = Ishtar
Christmas, Decembet 25 = birthday of Babylonian god Tammuz
Trinity = IHS and Babylonian trinity of Tammuz, Semiramus, Nimrod.
Sunday service = sun worship (catechism literally states the Catholics transfered the solemnity of the Sabbath to Sunday).
40 days of lent = 40 days of mourning the death of Tammuz prior to his resurrection.
Indulgences are a wholly Catholic fabrication.
Pope has recently endorsed gay civil unions.
Purgatory is a wholly Catholic fabrication.
Salvation by works instead of by faith is a Catholic (Babylonian) thing. Come out of Babylon.
The RCC has recently endorsed a version of the bible for China that is an extensive rewriting of the original text for that market and to satisfy the CCP. By extensive, I mean the entire character of Jesus has been changed.
The RCC has recently made claims that Christianity is compatible with ancestor worship. It isn't.
The RCC practices prayer to saints and angels. The Bible tells us we are to pray to God in Christ's name.
The Jesuit order exists entirely to persecute and subvert protestant churches. Ironically these churches protest the very abominations the RCC practices.
Now, go read Ezekiel 8 and you'll see that the Tammuz stuff and sun worship were both prophesied before Christ was born and the church even formed.
Revelation repeatedly condemns Babylon.
It's all a long con to slowly turn worship away from God and to an antichrist.
Catholicism is not
ChristianProtestant.
Pretty sure any religion that worships Jesus (the Trinity) and is primarily based off of the Gospels is Christian.
The main difference in theology is Catholics believe communion actually transforms into the Body and Blood of Christ [spiritually] while protestants say it is symbolic.
and don't reply with a pope comment--most catholics see him as nothing but a formal figurehead (and in reality, he only has the power appropriate for a figurehead [none]).
Catholics also believe in confession through a priest to guarantee forgiveness of sin, put the body of Jesus on the cross [crucifix], baptism is required to enter Heaven (hence doing it to babies, while later in life as an adult one is confirmed--basically equivalent to how/when Protestants baptise) and venerate (but do not worship) Mary, the non-divine human wholly unique in being chosen by God to bear God in human form into the world. These are minor differences with large misconceptions.
You speak from the spirit of religion and are wholly wrong in adherence to the redefinitions of the Catholic church. Your attempt to explain away their blasphemous ways speaks loud and clear of this.
Put away your doctrines of devils and traditions and wisdom of men, and repent and conform to the truth, the word of God.
