What is the difference in catholicism and baptist religion?

In: Catholicism [Edit categories]

Answer:

They are both christians. Baptists take the bible word for word. If the Bible says the world was created in 6 days, then it was. The catholics have the entire Holy tradition and holy scripture. The Catholics say do not take the bible word for word. If the bible says that the world was created in 6 days, then the world was created in 6 human days, 6 God days, any ammount. The bible is not to be take litteraly, but figuratively. The Catholic Church does say that some things in the bible did happan the exact way they say so in the bible, but Catholocism is not so Bible centric like the Baptists.
