For instance, Anglicans, Baptists, Methodists and many more.Protestants .Also Russian Orthodox.Roman Catholic AnswerAs noted above, there are two kinds of non-Catholic Christians. The first are our separated brothers in the Orthodox Church. There are some other Christians that fall into this category, full Christians who are separated from the Holy See by schism - Polish National Catholics, Old Catholics, and it looks as if the Society of St. Pius X is heading down that road. The other group are not in schism but separated by heresy, the protestants, some of which are Christians due to the fact that they have a valid baptism and believe in the Nicene Creed in its traditional interpretation. Other peoples who use the word "Christian" to describe themselves are using the word in a way it was never meant to be used. According to the Catholic Church anyone who, after receiving baptism, while remaining nominally a Christian, pertinaciously denies or doubts any of the truths that must be believed with divine and Catholic faith is considered a heretic.

Catholic AnswerCatholic and Christian mean the same thing, and have meant the same thing since the first century.

This is an error, and historically incorrect.All Catholics are Christians, not all Christians are Catholics.
