Almost all important doctrine is completely agreed upon between Catholic Christians and other Christians.
Here is the joint declaration of justification by Catholics (1999), Lutherans (1999), and Methodists (2006):
Only by grace, faith in Christ in the saving work and not for any merit on our part, we are accepted by God and receive the Holy Spirit, who renews our hearts while equipping us and calling us to good works .
There are some minor issues of doctrine and some major cultural traditional differences which, in my opinion, it does not matter much.
A Catholic worships and follows Christ in the tradition of Catholicism which, among other things, recognizes that Christ made Peter the leader of his Church and Pope Benedict XVI is Peter's direct successor.
With love in Christ.

There are some major issues of doctrine, but when Jesus returns will be judged according to the human heart, because God is not seen abroad as the man, but in the heart. It will pick up his people from all walks of life regardless of religion.

They are not as different as some say, the most notable difference is that Catholics admire holy people, as St.John.It 's also a fact that Catholics worship saints Virgin.Nowadays the differences are very small.

A lot of people take the simple approach of keeping them separated from their heads. The Protestant-Catholic-Lite:) All commitments, half of the fault;)

They believe in the same, struggling to achieve the same. Henceforth, Christian soldiers! Who cares?

We are not so different. It's nice when my cousin came to me and Bautista mass with observations on how it was surpised that the mass was so focused on Christ. She thought it would be Mary centered.
I think people who think Catholics are not Christians just do not understand what the Catholic Church really teaches.

Those who do not know the difference do not realize that Catholics and Protestants have more in common than differences.
