Is protestant a synonym or a antonym of Catholic?
.Catholic AnswerNeither, really, although some protestants might say synonym, some might say antonym. Synonym means exactly the same, and there have been some high Anglicans who have been trying to claim that for decades. Antonym means exactly the opposite, and the exact opposite of Catholic would probably be pagan or atheist. Protestant is a heresy of the Catholic faith.
Do Catholics get along better with Mormons or protestants?
This really is something that is treated on an individual basis and not the relations between denominations as a whole. The Catholic Church certainly has a right to not approve of Mormons or Protestants, as both claim that the Catholic Church has gone astray. The Catholic Church generally has good relations with other denominations and individual Catholic groups work together with both Protestant and Mormon groups on a regular basis. Whether an individual Catholic prefers the company of Protestants or Mormons would be based on his/her individual personality, as they will have many common beliefs with people from both religions.

What is the difference between Protestant and Catholic styles during the baroque era?
Without really getting into it, (as it can be a rather long and descriptive), the main differences are: Catholics believe in the virgin Mary, Protestants do not. Catholics pray to saints, Protestants do not. When it comes to scripture, Protestants sole and only source is the bible. Catholics follow the bible, as well as Roman Catholic traditions. Catholics believe in Purgatory, (where you are purified if you are not yet perfect when you die) Protestants on the other hand believe if you follow the bible, and accept Christ you will go directly to heaven. Protestants do not approve or follow the Pope. Protestants believe that faith alone will grant you access to heaven. Catholics believe faith as well as good deeds on earth will send you to heaven.This is a fairly quick run down of some of the fundamental differences between the two. Like i stated this is quite an in depth subject and can be fairly extensive in exact differences and beliefs.Source: i am Irish decent with Irish citizenship and have traveled Ireland extensively both Northern Ireland and south. The fundamental differences there are clear and definitive in regards to your question. I could not expose my Celtic cross tattoo in the North, as protestants would know i am a catholic, and would not take kindly to it.

Do Catholics sing protestant hymns?
Yes. There is really no difference between Catholic hymns & Protestant hymns. Both Protestants and Catholics are Christians. Catholics have some extra ones that have to do with the Eucharist, Mary, & other Catholic beliefs, but Catholics and Protestants share the majority of hymns. For example, did you know that the popular song "Your Grace is Enough" was originally written by a Catholic? Chris Tomlin, the artist most people think wrote the song, borrowed and adapted parts of the melody of it from Catholic singer Matt Maher. Catholic and Protestant artists and composers borrow songs from each other and share them with the general public both in CD form and in hymnals for church.
What is the differences between Catholic and protestant murals?
There really is no way to answer this question as there is no set "Catholic murals" and, aside from that, in the two thousand years the Church has been around, painting has changed a great deal. On the other side, there really is no "protestant" anything, as, as of 2013 A.D., there are over 30,000 different "protestant" sects, all believing and doing something entirely different. So there is no way that you can say what a protestant mural is, except maybe that the painter was not a Catholic.
What did the Catholic Church do to its doctrines that were being criticized by the protestants?
Well, the Catholic Church itself did not really change its doctorines. The Church is incapable of changing doctrines, as they are revealed by God, and not something made up by people. Some of the people within the Catholic Church were abusing the doctorines and practices around the time of the reformation. For example, some people were buying and selling indulgences, which is condemmed by the Catholic Church. Many Protestant Reformers were unhappy about these types of abuses.
What is the difference between the Protestant Church and the Church of England?
From a Catholic point of view: there really isn't a difference between the members of the Church of England (Anglican or Episcopalian) or Protestants because all Churches who broke from Rome during the Reformation are considered Protestant since they "protested" the Roman Church. However, the Church of England considers themselves to be "quasi-Protestant" a somewhat cross section of both Protestantism and Catholicism since they still somewhat retained a few Catholic traditions and views, but are separate from the Roman Church. There are differences between Anglicans/Episcopalians and other Protestants, but the Anglicans are still considered Protestant by the Roman Catholic Church.
What protestant denomination is most similar to catholic?
LutheranRoman Catholic AnswerNone of them are really "close" to Catholicism as they are all radically different from their very roots, however, High Church Anglicans (Episcopalians) look like Catholics in their worship, and many of them believe very similar things.
