The difference is: Christianity is any one who is a follower and believer in Jesus. This includes Pentecostal, Anglican, Protestant, Catholic...
Catholicism maintains direct roots (The Pope) with the apostles, with Peter as the first Pope. In the early 1500's after Martin Luther protested against the Catholic Church, King Henry (II or III) after wanting a divorce (which the Catholic Church said no to) made his own church, The Church of England so he could get a divorce.
-and hence protestants follow some random guy with no direct link with Jesus -King Henry
Catholicism believes to reach salvation/heaven both faith and good works are required. Although most other Christian denominations (e.g. Lutherans) believe that believing that God exists alone will allow you to get to heaven.
Holy Communion and The Pope are exclusive to the Catholic church, although Eastern-Orthodox also believes in the Eucharist.
Catholicism is 1500 years (except Orthodox which is almost identical to Catholicism) older than any other Christian denomination, with these denominations basing their beliefs on the bible alone which Catholicism does not do, including other basis's.
IN THE END CATHOLICISM IS BIBLICAL CHRISTIANITY BECAUSE BIBLICAL CHRISTIANITY IS THAT WHICH EXISTS WITHIN THE BIBLE AND CATHOLICISM WAS THAT
