Other than the fact that they all hold to the fact that there is One God who created everything, everything else is pretty much different. Our Blessed Lord, Jesus Christ would be a prime example. Jews reject Him as the Messiah, Catholics regard Him as God, and Muslims regard Him as a prophet.
Why do some Protestants not consider Catholics as Christians?
It is not a question of not considering Catholics as Christians. This would mean that Protestants would be judging Catholics and this would be contrary to what Jesus taught in not judging others. The vast majority of Protestants simply regard Catholics as another denomination of Christianity and, as Catholics are able to recite the Creed where the essential beliefs and foundations of Christianity are expounded, then they are regarded as true Christians, just like the other Protestant and Orthodox denominations. This is more lenient and inclusive, actually, than how Catholics officially regard Protestants, in that Catholics regard themselves as the one True Church and all others as false, and not worthy of being 'in communion' with it, which is very sad. The problem that some Protestants have regarding Catholics, is that they believe that Catholics have moved too far from the original Christian doctrine of the early church in that they have introduced practices and doctrines that are not Biblical, contrary to scripture and introduced by fallible humans rather than by Christ. These include the selling of indulgences in the middle ages, celibacy of the priesthood, an exclusively male clergy, praying to saints, veneration of relics, infallibility of the pope, purgatory, limbo, over-veneration of the Virgin Mary (even suggesting that she was a co-redemptrix with Christ), the idea of transubstantiation, and an over-use of liturgy. Nevertheless most Protestant Churches still regard Catholics as basically Christian as, despite the differences, the most important Christian issues are shared with other denominations, and the differences are not so fundamental (such as those between Jehovah's Witnesses or Mormons and true Christianity) so as to deem Catholicism a cult.

Was Jesus killed on Christmas or Easter?
There is conflicting evidence in the New Testament with regard to the death of Jesus. The synoptic Gospels imply that it was after the Passover, while the Gospel of John says he was crucified just prior to the Passover and gave up his spirit approximately at the time the Passover was to be slaughtered. Therefore we can conclude that while the Gospels may disagree on an exact time for Jesus' death, it is reasonably discernible that the purpose of the Gospel writers was to emphasize the significance of Passover observance. For it is their mention of the feast where they ultimately find common ground. ----
Do catholics and protestants have the same views on Jesus?
Yes.There are many differences between Catholics and Protestants, and, in fact, many differences between the differing protestant Churches themselves. However, these differences are fairly minor. For example, protestants find the over-veneration of Mary by Catholics as wrong, as is the praying to saints, veneration of relics and so on. Catholics regard the ministry of, say, protestant clergy as invalid as they believe that some protestant churches did not have the original authority to ordain.But when it boils down to the most important aspects of the Christian faith - those surrounding Jesus Christ himself - such as the total humanity and yet total divinity of Jesus, his life, mission, miracles, teaching, crucifixion, bodily resurrection, ascension and final return as judge, and, of course, the Trinitarian nature of God, all protestants are in agreement with Catholics.However, when you come to heretical cults like the Jehovah's Witnesses and Mormons, then there is a great deal of difference between these groups and the Christian Church worldwide as these groups do not regard Jesus as divine, and, while there are many minor differences in doctrine, there are also fundamental differences - so much that these groups cannot be called Christian in the normal sense.
