Is it wrong to be catholic and attend Presbyterian Church?
The answer depends on what you mean by attend a Presbyterian Church. Sometimes in cases where a couple are a "mixed religion" that is to say one is Catholic but the other is not, it is not uncommon for either party to attend the parishes of each other. In other words the Catholic always attends Mass, but then also attends the Church of their spouse. In this case, this is not wrong provided attending the Church of ones spouse does not weaken or damage or otherwise threaten the Faith of the Catholic, or provided the Church the Catholic attends in addition to attending Mass faithfully is not explicitly or implicitly anti-catholic. However if one is Catholic but simply chooses to attend a non-catholic Christian Church, some red flags are raised. Why does such a person want to attend a non-catholic church? Why does such a person consider themselves Catholic when they do not want to attend Mass? Actions are extremely important to pointing to what one believes. Therefore one who calls themselves "Catholic" yet never attends Mass, or never attends a Catholic parish, but a Protestant Church is by their actions showing that they reject the Catholic Faith and have embraced another Faith. That, therefore is considered sinful provided the conditions for "Sin" are met.
