Is catholisism the largest religion in the world?

Answer 1

Yes it is. A Christian is a follower of Christ.

Actually, a Christian is NOT just a follower of Christ, a Christian is also someone who ACCEPTED Jesus Christ as their personal Savior, and has the Holy Spirit living within them as well as being Baptized.

Roman Catholic AnswerNo, the Catholic Church is most definitely NOT a "denomination". the Catholic Church was established by Our Blessed Lord, Himself, on the apostle, St. Peter (see St. Matthew's Gospel 16:17-19). It is His Mystical Body and His Bride. And He promised to be with it until the end of time. He sent the Holy Spirit on Pentecost to guide it always until the end of the world. It is, as the Creed says: One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic. When you are speaking about "Christian denominations" you are referring to the 30,000 (and growing) "ecclesial communities" that were originally founded by heretics in the 16th century, who left the Church that Our Blessed Lord established because of their own problems, and founded their own "churches" which have little to nothing to do with the Church that Our Blessed Lord founded. Never confuse the two.

Answer 2

No Catholic is not the largest religion but has more followers in Christianity.

Roman Catholic Answer:

The only two religions with over a billion members are Islam with 1.5 billon (2005 estimate), and Christianity with 2.1 billion (2005 estimate) of which 1.166 (Vatican figure for 2008) billion are Catholic. The only other group with over a billion members (estimated) is Secular/agnositic/athesist. So it would appear that Christianity was the largest in numbers with Islam beating either Catholics or non-Catholic Christians if they are considered separately.

Answer 3

The Catholic religion has the largest following in the United States, and some other countries. The largest religion in the world in the Muslim religion with over 2 billion followers worldwide

Answer 4

Catholicism is the largest Christian Denomination with over 1 billion members, there is no "Roman Catholicism". It's just Catholic, not Roman Catholic. Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is never used by the official Catholic Church.

Answer 5

Roman Catholic AnswerOutside of the schismatic Orthodox Churches, the Catholic Church is the only Christian Church. It was established by Our Blessed Lord, Himself, who sent the Holy Spirit to guide it until the end of the world. Our Blessed Lord was very specific, the Church is His Mystical Body, and His Bride, and He only has One. All other ecclesial communities that call themselves "Christian" are actually heresies that started their own religions. The individuals in them may be Christians to the extent that they are validly baptized and believe in the Nicene Creed in its traditional interpretation.

Answer 6

Catholisism is a branch of Christianity which is the largest religion.
