Tch. A Christian is a universal term, and umbrella term for a person who believes Jesus was the Messiah/savior and follows the Bible. It is that simple. Catholicism is a denomination/sect based upon doctrinal interpretations of the Bible. The same as Protestants, Mormons, JW, Seven Day Eventists, Brethren and so on.
They are classified as Christians because the believe Jesus is the Christ. Nothing can change that, no matter how much some people want to say "Your not interpreting it right so you aren't Christian.
Want it simpler? Jesus + Bible = Christian.
All Catholics are Christian, but not all Christians are Catholics. Savvy?

Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ.[/b]
Dodging my question are we?
