Outside of a belief in the divinity of Our Blessed Lord, Jesus Christ, a belief in the inspiration of the New Testament, and the sacrament of baptism (well, the name and water anyway), very little.

.

Catholics follow the Church established by Our Blessed Lord, Jesus Christ, in 33 A.D. when He said to Peter:

St. Matthew 16:17-19:

And Jesus answering, said to him [Peter]: Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-Jona: because flesh and blood hath not revealed it to thee, but my Father who is in heaven. And I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of @#!*% shall not prevail against it. And I will give to thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven. And whatsoever thou shalt bind upon earth, it shall be bound also in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth, it shall be loosed also in heaven.

Later, He send the Holy Spirit to guide it into all truth and promised to be with it until the end of time. The Catholic Church, then, is the ONLY Church which is the Body of Christ, established by Christ, and guided by the Holy Spirit, and guaranteed until the end of the world. This has been proved beyond a shadow of a doubt by It's continuing existence for 2000 years, while It has continued to teach exactly the same things.

Baptists, on the other hand (from The Baptists By Dr. Richard P. Bucher):

There are several theories on the origin of the Baptists. The most convincing theory, and the one that most Baptist historians hold, is that Baptists originated from the English Separatist (Congregationalist) movement at the end of the Sixteenth Century. Robert Browne and John Smyth are often viewed as fathers of the Baptist church. The first English Baptists were General (Arminian) Baptists. 1644 is often viewed as the year of origin for the Baptist churches. It was in that year that the particular (Calvinist) Baptist churches authored the London Confession. This confession stated their faith and rejected the teachings of the Anabaptists and the General Baptists. Note: John Bunyan, the author of Pilgrim's Progress, was a General Baptist; Charles Haddon Spurgeon was a Particular Baptist. The General and Particular Baptists of England united in 1891. It is usually held that the first Baptist congregations in the United States were in Newport, Rhode Island (1638) and Providence, Rhode Island (1639).
