Catholicism means you believe the pope has the authority of Christ on Earth and you do not have direct access to him.
Catholicism teaches a false Christ,

Are you trying to flush out the Catholics on the site? I think most of them have stopped posting.
The American Protestants, who have been taught to make this claim, are probably still in bed.
Is this a Canadian thing?
By religion I mean Christianity, by Christianity I mean Protestantism, by Protestantism I mean the Church of England as established by law.

Catholicism means you believe the pope has the authority of Christ on Earth and you do not have direct access to him. Being Christian means there is nothing between you and Christ. Catholicism teaches a false Christ, though lately the pope has been blurring the lines between the two ideologies. I wouldn't be surprised if in the near future he claims that we should all affix ourselves to a single moniker that defines the generalities that we all "agree" with.

Isn't that what Constantine did?

Christianity is simply believing that Jesus Christ is the true Son of God and not merely a prophet, believing that he is a part of the Holy trinity

That couldn't be further from the truth.
Catholics are taught ton have a personal connection and relationship with Christ.
Where did you hear that we do not have direct access? Lol
