There's a sticky at the top of the forum asking the same question.

Catholics are Christians.

I was raised Catholic but now consider myself an atheist.

It's also worth noting that most people who classify themselves as agnostic and most who classify themselves as atheists hold similar beliefs about the actual existence of god.

Catholics do identify themselves as Christians. There are many branches of Christianity, and Catholicism is one of them.

All catholics are christians but not all christians are catholics. Catholics are a subset of christians.

I usually don't consider atheism as a religion but that aside, I'm a strong atheist. I'd also add myself as anti-theist.

Then why is it that when I look at the timeline of Christianity, Roman Catholicism appears as a sub-set of Christianity? Perhaps the diagram is lying but I'm more inclined to think you're absolutely wrong. In terms of what Catholics believe, yes there may be a difference but to say it's different means it has nothing to do with Christianity. Good luck trying to explain that. Below is a diagram showing why you're wrong.

I actually would say that I'm more of a spiritualist religion than anything, though I did go to catholic schools and such like and used to go to a church which was church of england but at the moment I would say my religion is spiritualist.

I think I'm agnostic.. I'm not quite sure to be honest

Re: What religion are you?
 
Not sure, as I do consider myself fairly spiritual. I think I relate closer to Deist philosophies though.

Re: What religion are you?
 
I consider myself agnostic because I believe in God and Jesus, but I don't believe in the bigoted religion that is Christianity.

I'm curious, which parts do you revise and often use to give hope? Also, why do these parts give you hope?

Re: What religion are you?
 
I am agnostic, leaning very close to atheistic.

Re: What religion are you?
 
I am a deist mostly because of the way that I have defined God. God is the force or energy (and is reducible to a single entity) that is responsible for the universe. It does not have judgment and it does not intervene in the lives of human beings. God simply plays out of its own nature. I was an atheist for awhile until I thought about it, and I feel that there must be a link between the 4 fundamental forces. Of course I could be wrong, but I believe that such an entity must exist.

If you wanted to divide "Christian" and "Catholic," you should have used Protestant instead of "Christian."

Seeing as we already have this exact same thread, I am going to go ahead and close this one. :)
