In practical terms the function of Catholicism is to provide the means for us to gain eternal life by entering the Kingdom of Heaven through Baptism and to practice the essentials for living a Christian life. Catholicism is the religion through which man is able to come to knowledge of God's revelation and thus establish the proper relationship with God through His vehicle the Church. Catholicism is the religion God Himself founded as a means through which grace may come to people, that they may go to heaven and be with Him. This is the basic function one would expect from true religion.

Anglo-Catholicism and Roman Catholicism are both branches of Christianity, but they have some key differences.
