On the same note, saying Catholics support wars but Christians do not is entirely invalid as well.

I have to disagree with you, the Catholic church has a lot of traditions and believe that are forbidden in the Bible...
God said we should not bow/pray/honor any image carved out of wood (or for that matter any material) yet priests bow down before the cross in church.
God has said in te Bible that EVERY human is holy... yet the Catholic church has "the right" to declare certain ppl holy?
God has said Mary was chosen to deliver birth to Jesus Christ but she has no special place whatsoever. Yet the Catholic church worships Mary and prays to her.
Just a few things that are not allowed and still done by the Catholic church... so I hope you can understand that I consider myself a Christian (follower of Christ) and do not want to have anything to do with the Catholic church.
I do agree most religions like Catholicism, Protestants etc. come down to the same point: Jesus... but the way they travel is not the way I choose.
