No it is not actually, that is just a claim that they make - it is just a church that worships the pope and Mary.
And they hide kiddy fiddlers.

Really? Christ founded the Catholic Church?...
The Council of Nicaea was a few hundred years after he died..
Either way... Christ didn't form a church....

I'd rather ask... do other churches teach from the bible OR are they following their own doctrines?
- The trinity
- Original sin
- Jesus sin' sacrifice
- not needing to keeping the law
- Jesus being God or fully human and fully God
etc.
As for the christian claim that Jesus is God himself... it turns the woman who gave birth to him the mother of God. In doing so, Christians are in no position to accuse the catholics of worshipping Mary.
Christians commit a sin that's far worse than worshipping Mary... that is, implying that God has a mother.

Matt.23
[9] And call no man your father on earth, for you have one Father, who is in heaven.
Jesus says:
Matt.23
[8] But you are not to be called rabbi, for you have one teacher, and you are all brethren.
Matthew 16:23
Jesus turned and said to Peter, "Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me; you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men."

I would think its because some Christians don't agree with worshipping a Pope.
