Is it better to be a Christian Protestant or Catholic?

I realized that criminals award are Roman Catholic. Such as the Italian Mafia, Mexican Mafia and the Irish mafia. I'm the kind of man who wants to avoid getting into trouble or go into gangs, or jail. I realized that going out with a study group of the Christian Bible has brought me around to give the best friends are responsible people. Should be completely converted into a Protestant Christian?

    Religion spoils things. Jesus Christ is the only way to Heaven!

  2. James O says:

    There are many Catholic youth groups and Bible studies
      There are bands composed entirely of Protestants (many bands Black) and many Protestant gangsters, thieves and murderers.
      Catholicism is the fullness of Christianity and everything that I tried other religions, I found in Catholicism and more!
      Develop a strong personal friendship and service to Christ as Lord and Savior and Head of all and all relationships and devote yourself to it.
      If someone calls you closer to God and a virtuous life then go to that person, if you were a sin and called crimminality, then dump him or her!
      Christian and Catholic Christianity is what the fundamentalist Protestants have t go from Catholicism.
      Go with a good talk with a local priest in his parish and Catholic
      When I was a teenager I went to the various names of groups and learned a lot, but it was all over my commitment to strengthening the Catholic Church founded by Christ.
      Why not consider converting to Christ completely and find out what the Catholic Church really teaches and what the Catholic community can help you in your spiritual life and morality?

    Catholic Defender is probably right. The reason there are so many "Catholics" criminals is that Roman Catholics are so many! More to the point: immigrants tend to form families of crime in America - and most foreign nations are Roman Catholic nations. You will not find the Taiwanese or the Russian mafia is Catholic mob - simply because immigrants are not a Roman Catholic country.
      SO, it is not Roman Catholicism that leads to crime, but immigration and the problems associated with integrating immigrants into our society that lead to ethnic "pockets" in our society and then emerging crime families of these.

    It is better to follow your heart. If the Holy Spirit leads you to the Catholic Church, go there. If the Holy Spirit leads to a Protestant denomination, which is where to go. Just know that there are bad people everywhere to practice all religions. It is his walk with Christ, not about who is following Christianity in the same way as you. Each person is responsible for themselves.

  5. m says:

    What? Like the last person says Christians are Roman Catholics. And no one can choose for yourself. That is something that has to choose on their own.
      1st and all … There are criminals in every religion. And yes you are right there are a large number of Roman Catholics. There is also a large number of Protestants as well. I''m Catholic, but I know a lot of Roman Catholics and Protestants and there are not different from each other personality wise.

  6. ~stuck in California~ says:

    What is a Protestant Christian? As in opposing the Protestant as Catholic Christians? Catholic and Protestant Christians. I think they are confused.
      You forgot that Russian mafia, however, the Orthodox, the mafia that china is a mix of Buddhists, Taoists, confusion.

  7. Wolfebla says:

    Oh, I am sooooo happy for you. By all means, turn to be a Christian Protestant, if you believe your Bible study friends are much better than the Catholic mafia terrible that there are people who never met.
      And when you do, just know that somewhere, a Roman Catholic parish was established in his knees, thanking God for sparing them.

  8. Dakota Z says:

    First, just because the Mexicans and Italians, and Irish and Polish and all other nationalities tend to be Catholic, does not mean that the practice of the Catholic faith properly. The Catholic faith is the tradition of Christ handed over the popes of our current Pope. It might be worth noting that the Anglicans (a race of Luther) killed Catholics for centuries under British rule. The Irish Protestants went to war with the Catholics. Luther also brought liberalism and modernism. People do not dictate what religion is. Catholics can be through the ill will that does not mean that religion is a mistake. It is time to begin to see things with faith and reason and not just the feeling, because people make you feel warm and fuzzy inside and tell you everything you want to hear. If you turn to God in the Catholic religion, what else is of Satan?

  9. Fr Alexander says:

    There are men of good will in all races, religion and creed. Labeling of the Roman Catholic school as wrong before some of his billions of followers mafia - looks very bad - and I'm not a Roman Catholic.
      When you are watching the issue of the Christian religion that needs to go where Jesus Christ is the High Priest, the Way of Truth, Life. Where are the teachings of the Apostles, without being contradicted by the change 'before' education. So, start there - with the principle.
      Of the old religions are Orthodox Christianity and Roman Catholicism.
      Because I am an Orthodox priest - I would recommend that you examine the truth of orthodox Christianity - if you find the truth there - then you will find Jesus Christ.

  10. Selah: Hebrews 13:2 ;-) says:

    It is better to be a born again child of God
      Jhn 3:3 Jesus answered and told him, truly, I say to you, Except a man be born again, you can not see the kingdom of God.
      Mat 7:21 Not everyone who says to me, Lord, Lord, shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but to do the will of my Father in heaven.

  11. sparki77 says:

    Catholics have Bible studies, too. And the various organizations that provide service to others, such as soup kitchens and the Knights of Columbus and other Benedictines and Oblates. You can try out some of these people, too.

  12. Jacob P says:

    Christians are good because they have a potato (potatoes are not real) and Catholics believe Mary Magdalene was closer to God than Jesus, so we were just stupid. I mean, Jesus is the Son of God, how is it better than Christianity Catholicism? RULES Christianity.

  13. *Serendi says:

    Eric S,
      —- Really never met anyone in the mob that grow in the Catholic Church. And you?
      Your question is another example of attacks on Christians. Y'all do each other very well ….. think.

  14. little~m says:

    Each religion has criminals. Muslims, Catholics, Baptists, Hindus !!!!!!!! ALL OF THEM more u make ur own decisions, not religion, in the form or sound, i highly doubt ul have a religion that seriously anyway.

  15. Da Man says:

    Gangs / mafias are not people who are good Catholics. They are morons who ignore their faith.
      Remember that God created the Roman Catholic church, and then separated Protestants.

  16. Catholic Defender says:

    what? I am sure the proportion is the same for both. which should not be a barometer for the choice of whether to convert. There are a lot of large groups of Catholic Bible study too.

  17. Grand Master Mystic says:

    LOLOL! The Catholic Church teaches peace and nonviolence. The Mafia is violent. They were raised Catholic. Is it the practice of Catholics … I think the answer is obvious …

  18. tebone03 says:

    Iam a Catholic Christian and iam not in any mob, but iam Italian. There are gangsters who are also Protestants

  19. St_Biolo says:

    NO, I would consummate my stupidity and a question in Y! A truly spiritual as anyone would. Definitely top of your wisdom here.

  20. Kevin A.R.T. says:

    Whichever you closer to God.

  21. Shy Ernie™ says:

    I am a Protestant Christian and I like it here, you can convert, if you like, its your choice

  22. clusium1 says:

    First, the Roman Catholic Christians *** *** SON !!!!!

  23. Eza L says:

    Conversion is a stupid word. Repent and follow Jesus and God and his grace in which it is to switch to a new person.

  24. Dave RC says:

    It is better to be Catholic. The Catholic Eucharist is the living, risen Jesus. It really is the man! We also believe in the veneration of Mary, Mother of Jesus:
      The rosary is explained here: http://www.ewtn.com/Devotionals/prayers/
      The fifteen promises of Mary to Christians who pray the rosary:
      1. Which faithfully serve me by the recitation of the Rosary shall receive signal thanks.
      2. I promise my special protection and the greatest thanks to all those who shall recite the Rosary.
      3. The Rosary is a powerful armor against hell, it will destroy vice, decrease sin and defeat heresies.
      4. That will make virtue and good works flourish, but you get to the souls the abundant mercy of God, will withdraw the hearts of men from the love of the world and its vanities, and lift them to the will of eternal things. Ah, to sanctify the souls of here.
      5. The soul which recommends itself to me by the recitation of the Rosary, do not perish.
      6. Whoever shall recite the Rosary devoutly, applying himself to the consideration of its sacred mysteries, shall never be conquered by misfortune. God does not punish his justice, he does not miss an unprovided death, if just to stay on the grace of God and be worthy of eternal life.
      7. Who will have a true devotion for the Rosary shall not die without the sacraments of the Church.
      8. Those who are faithful to recite the Rosary shall have during their life and death in the light of God and the fullness of His grace, at the time of death, will participate in the merits of the saints in Paradise.
      9. I shall deliver from Purgatory those who have dedicated themselves to the Rosary.
      10. Children of the Rosary the faithful deserve a high degree of glory in heaven.
      11. You should get everything they ask of me by the recitation of the Rosary.
      12. All those who propagate the Holy Rosary shall be aided by me in their needs.
      13. I have obtained from my Divine Son that all the defenders of the Rosary shall have for intercessors the entire Celestial Court during their life and at the hour of death.
      14. All those who recite the Rosary are my sons, and brothers of my only Son, Jesus Christ.
      15. Devotion to my Rosary is a great sign of predestination.
      God bless!

    No! You can not convert only the first man has let you down. The Mafia is not 100% Roman Catholic. If so, which certainly do not practice their faith! God's love is stronger than any human being. You need your way more than you need man. Therefore you should not leave the Catholic Church. To sum up that paragraph: the love of God is stronger, nobody should leave the RCC, with some acting as drag. Note that I was in your position and the man! I know how you feel. Attend a study group, but Protestant hey, I've gone through a bad experience with Catholics before. I am stable and strong, so they will have with Christ is a true Church. The Protestant Reformation changed life, but still a false doctrine. Do not believe that the works needed salvation 4. "Faith without works is dead", a book of James. Are you going 2 follow Luther and his followers, who changed the Bible cousin who thought they were right? NO! Follow Christ and his faithful servants, who have not changed a bit the Bible. Please note that all Protestants believe faith alone is the key. Also check out this verse: "Many of them call my name, Lord, Lord, Lord, the last day, but only those who made the will of my father to see the kingdom of God." Now we also know that the Protestants do not believe they have to confess their sins to priests. "and he gave them power to forgive sins to a priest through Jesus' NOTTT! With a priest that most Protestants think (FALSE) Please do not leave the largest Christian denomination e1 only cousin you think it is bad. That is WRONG! The Pope is wrong? was Peter, Paul, San Jose, Santa Catalina, San Francisco, San Cristobal, Santa or St. Bernadette St. all Catholics that they were wrong? Nooooooo !!!!! Note that the FAQ are the Protestant Christians! How many murders and bad things have 2 blacks and Catholics? If u 2 make a fake name will be in a body a little with people? (Not their church, only the body of Protestantism) Last but not least: the purgatory. Protestants deny purgatory. "Anyone who dies in the Grace of God and will still imperfectly purified cleaning fire" is hell cleaning? NO. The sky's the fire? NO! hmmm purgatory! BINGO We have BROTHER! "nothing unclean can not enter heaven" If the Protestants do not believe they are sins and repent 2 only faith is what saves you? Oh HELL yeah! It's in the Bible brother: D God bless you and find the faith in God! I hope you see that truth is the road. Luther does not follow that Christ had no authority from God to break the CCR 2 and 7 to remove books from the Holy Bible.

    It is interesting that you bring that. No offense that is within all denominations to be honest. It is interesting how the problems in the Catholic Church hits headlines, but when it comes to Protestants, Judaism, Islam, which are rarely bred in the news. What is taught in high school is that Catholics were evil because of the cross, but not when the facts of why cross exactlythe began. How to raise that to Catholics persecuted Protestants, but to show what was happening to Catholics, that is, King Henry VIII would have the whole Catholic family tortured and killed if they were caught with a Douay Rheims Bible.
      Persecution of Catholics by Protestants in England (1535-1692): We suffered the extreme penalty for maintaining the unity of the Church and the supremacy of the Apostolic See, the most attacked by the doctrines of all land reform and at all times. They maintained their faith almost entirely of the most modern methods, which were the first to keep, ie education of the clergy in
      seminars, and Catholic youth in schools, with the risk, and often at the cost of living. The tyranny that was to endure, as a rule, not the sudden violence of a tyrant, but the continuous oppression of the laws enacted by the people in Parliament, passed in the specious plea of national necessity and political development, and exploitation while centuries with an almost irresistible force that the law when purchased for the generations of conservatives and law-abiding counties.
      The last words and death of MARTYRS OF ENGLISH: Imprimatur 1878 "I am a Christian, and wear on my forehead the sign of the cross. This confirmed to me the devil sign and against the heretics, the enemies of God. I fear that his words or not their threats. Confess and worship God. He created me to serve Him, and He can help me in any other, but in the Catholic faith. This faith we profess. With the heart to believe the men of justice, but with the mouth confession is made to salvation. For this faith that I now want to die more than you ever want to live. death can not be more beautiful than it is brought by this faith, which teaches the faith of Christ, and hundreds of thousands of martyrs have sealed with their blood. " (O BARKWORTH MARK LAMBERT, priest, martyr SPANISH AND OPB)
      Ireland of the Holocaust: Jews as not always refer to the "Jews of oxygen Famine of 1939-1945," Irish so no one should ever, ever again refer to the "Irish Potato Famine."
      etc. .. this is not taught in school, this is something that I wonder why?
      The answer is easy, Lucifer and his apostate hatred and fear of the Roman Catholic Church on their own, some have admitted during exorcisms (which took place in the audience) are those that have influenced the revolt and the Protestant denominations . Even Martin Luther knew it was wrong: a curious letter from Martin Luther to his mother, has been among the many valuable manuscripts in the library of the Dominican Convent of Santa Maria sopra Minerva in Rome. The poor lady, who would not dare to blame her son for his religious aberrations, which fell from the idea of being separated from him for ever, he wrote and asked if she should change her religion and adopt his new persuasion. The pride of Saxony can not make her mind to participate in common with a shipwreck that he loved him so dearly, so he replied: "No, remain a Catholic because I did not cheat or betray my mother. "What better refutation of the arch heretic doctrine that there can be an answer, which eliminated the conscience of his filial affection.

    It is better to be a believer in Christ to be Catholic or Protestant. However, these 2 options, I would say it is better to be a Protestant. Too many things in the Bible are not Catholic, at least from what I read in the Bible.
