Why do you think that is different? You both believe in Jesus which are forms of Christianity.

Yes different sects, same religion. I just asked because I hear that alot. People often get confused because they think I am not a Christian because I am Greek Orthodox.

see the difference for me is that with Catholics it seems to be more about rituals and customs and with Christianity it is more about how you live your life...

Thai is Theravada and Chinese is Mahayana - two different 'vehicles'. The basic core beliefs are the same though.

I complete agree but they are both based on the bible and the teachings of Jesus thats why I consider them the same, same foundation I guess.

I agree, that they have the same foundation but the way they practice it is different. I am a protestant Christian and the way I do things is much different than a Catholic, but what ties us together would be the beliefs of Jesus, bible, etc. Of course we have differences too. But I have also met Catholics who think they and Christians are not at all the same, and I don't understand that.

Me neither, people always give me the oddest look when they find out I am christian. They say, I thought you said you were greek orthodox?

but you can be Catholic and not be a Christian...

I don't agree...I think people can say that, but a Christian means a follower of Christ...which Catholics are supposed to be also. So some may just see "Christian" as a different term that they don't want to call themselves, but Catholics are technically Christians too. If a Catholic does not know that, then I don't know what their church says or what they think about the bible. I have always thought of Catholics as Christians and we have a local radio station sponsored by the Catholic Diocese nearby, and they call themselves a Christian radio station and call themselves Christians. Catholic just says what type of Christian they are. There are Catholic Christians, and Protestant Christians(which also includes lot of denominations).
