Catholic Answer Trying to get statistics from the same year is challenging! The second link below lists comparative numbers for 2005 with more than a billion Catholics in the world and about 500 million protestants of all stripes. Please note that there are nearly 40,000 different protestant religions! The half billion is a total for all of them.

Well seeing as all Catholics are Christians, no. Christianity is the overall title for Protestants and Catholics. And all other denominations are within those(more specifically, Protestantism). Meaning all Catholics are Christians, but not all Christians are Catholic. So there are more Christians than there are Catholics.

.

Catholic AnswerAll Catholics are Christians. Some who are outside the visible Church may be Christians if they are validly baptized and believe in the Nicene Creed in its traditional interpretation, so due to these invisible members of the Church, one could say that there were more Christians than Catholics.
