protestant vs catholic?

I was driving my son to Boy Scout Camp, he was off to a religious retreat for the weekend. While Boy Scouts prides itself in accepting all religions, this camp only had activities for Protestants and Catholics. Even that was generous, as it was at a retreat center sponsored by the Arch Diocese. So on the ride, "What is the difference between Catholics and Protestants", he asked. I responded, "Do you want the long answer or the short one?", "The short one." I told him, "Catholic is latin for universal, and the powers of the time decided to form one church and called it the Universal Church, later on, some disagreed that there was only one way and protested, and formed other churches, they are the Protest-ant Churches."

The truth of the matter is that I find many Catholics that are quite mystical in their belief systems, and much more liberal than the furher fundamental Protestants... the lines definitely blur.

you can call it editing, but as you are muslim, you beleive that the Quran is the word of Allah (s.w.t)? well...the ahadith you gave me i have raed, i havent researched into it, nut ata a first thought i would say, hadith we know are written by people and some of them say different things, Allah (s.w.t) may have wanted to change this part of the Quran just as He revealed different parts at different times,,,but the right times. and it has to be noted taht this was done before the prophet Muhammad (s.a.w) died
