A sudden emurgence of christian nuts...

All 3 Abrahamic religions are very similar.  One of Judaism's and Christianity's main differences is the new testament.  The Muslims have their Qur'an.  But regarding your Christianity and Catholic sect thing, and for those who don't know, Christianity used to be one unified religion.  Assuming memory serves, Rome and Byzantium disagreed on a few things and split off into two religions: Roman Catholicism and Orthodox Christianity.  Us Catholics got to keep the Pope.  :D  Later on, some people like Martin Luther got pissed off at the church for good reason and split off and made their numerous protestant religions.  So now, we have 50 loving million different Christian sects with often minor variations in their beliefs.  What a mess right?

Yes, reformation, Great Schism and all that jazz.
My point is that Christianity and Catholicism are the closest, not simply close.

[DrMobius]

Catholicism is apart of Christianity.  The word is more to describe any Christian religions.

Um, I could swear that the Roman Catholic and the Eastern Orthodox split happened waaay before the 11th century, when the Roman Empire split.

So um, hows school?

I learn. I go home. I forget. I fail.

Nope
It was during the time of the Byzantine Empire.

Constantine was the emperor who converted to Christianity in Rome, I forget exactly when though.
Too lazy to look, but it had to be before 1453, the fall of Byzantine.

This is basic history. It was the 4th century.

The split happened about a century later, and that's when Orthodox separated from Catholicism.

Wait a minute, why are so many Athiests hate Christians and no other religion, don't they have to hate every other religion aswell?

[DrMobius]

Atheists just have no religion officially.  As always, your assumptions about a group are not applicable to the whole of them.

We don't hate religion, only some of us.

[Niliscro]

We don't all hate religion, only some of us.

No edit :\

Gonna go now anyway, so if I'm quoted on anything I won't see it for a long time.
I need sleep, I've only gotten about 12 hours in the past 3 days.
