How do Roman Catholics differ from other Christians?

They have an official church structure that differs from other Christian religions. The Pope is the head, elected by a layer of Cardinals, who are elected by layers of Bishops and Archbishops, who are elected by priests, who are elected by parishes. Roman Catholic priests are allegedly celibate men. The Roman Catholic Church opposes most forms of birth control, and divorce. The Roman Catholic church also differs significantly in the importance they place in traditions of the church over against scripture. They give the former almost equal or in some cases greater importance, as they hold that they are the determiners of what is scripture and also its only rightful interpreters. Most other churches do not so elevate the traditions of men which they see as fallible over against the infallible word of God as the norm for all Christian life and teaching.

No..Martin luther, as well as other Protestant reformers, have deviated from the one church created by Jesus and the apostles.. the Catholic church and Orthodox.

Nobody should worship a church created by men.

Is there a Liberal Catholic Church denomination which limits its priests and deacons to heterosexual men?

No, there are several churches that tack on the title 'Catholic' to their names but who are not in union with Rome and not true Catholic Churches. Examples: The Old Catholic Church, the American Catholic Church, the American Charismatic Catholic Church, etc. Some allow married clergy and female priests. Your question is not very clear. The Roman Catholic Church limits its clergy to men only but could not be classified as 'liberal' in the way that some of the non-Catholic 'Catholic' denominations listed above cold be.
