Catholic Answer Catholic beliefs include the total of revelation has given by Our Blessed Lord, Jesus Christ to the apostles (His Church) and subsequently handed down by them through Tradition, including The Bible and Oral Tradition. Below is a brief synopsis of these beliefs. For a more comprehensive look at them, please see the link below for a copy of the Catechism of the Catholic Church. There really is no set of protestant beliefs, in common, all protestants have in common is that they do not belong to the Catholic Church founded by Christ, but to one of those churches founded by human beings in the sixteenth century or later. As of January 2014, there are way over 30,000 of these, to attempt to define what they believe in would be impossible.
Catholic beliefs:
Christian teachings would be summarized in the Nicene Creed:
I believe in one God, the Father almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all things visible and invisible.
I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the Only Begotten Son of God,
born of the Father before all ages.
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made, consubstantial
with the Father;
Through him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation
he came down from heaven,
and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate
of the Virgin Mary,
and became man.
For our sake he was crucified
under Pontius Pilate,
he suffered death and was buried,
and rose again on the third day
in accordance with the Scriptures.
He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory
to judge the living and the dead
and his kingdom will have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the Lord, the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
who with the Father and the Son
is adored and glorified,
who has spoken through the prophets.
I believe in one, holy, catholic,
and apostolic Church.
I confess one baptism for the forgiveness of sins
and I look forward to the resurrection
of the dead and the life of the world to come.
Amen.

Ten Commandments of God
Exodus XX
1. I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall have no other gods before me. You shall not make for yourself a graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them or serve them. For I the Lord your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and the fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing steadfast love to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.
2. You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes his name in vain.
3. Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor, and do all your work; but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God; in it you shall not do any work, you, or your son, or your daughter, your manservant, or your maidservant, or your cattle, or the sojourner who is within your gates; for in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day; therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.
4. Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land which the Lord your God gives you.
5. You shall not kill.
6. You shalt not commit adultery.
7. You shalt not steal.
8. You shalt not bear false witness against your neighbor.
9. You shalt not covet your neighbor's wife.
10. You shalt not covet your neighbor's goods.

Jesuits combined Catholic beliefs with Huguenot beliefs?
The Huguenots were the French protestants. The Jesuits were formed primarily to combat the protestant heresy. I don't know where you got this idea, but some of the stuff on the web for Huguenots and Jesuits suggest that the two were bitter enemies, and that the Huguenots were responsible in some way for the suppression of the Jesuits. Either way, there is no way that the Jesuits ever combined Catholic beliefs with protestant beliefs - that would give a lie to their whole reason for existing.
