All I know is that protestant is a type of christian...also a catholic is a type of christian too and there are many other kinds, like I'm an orthodox christian.

I got to a Protestant Church. It's not really like Catholic, like yeah they obviously believe in the same stuff but Protestan isn't as strict. We sing Gospels, not Hymns. We have a Pastor, who is married. It's pretty much like being Baptist, except more laid-back. Hope this helps! :]

Basically, when Henry VIII was excommunicated from the Catholic Church, he created the Church of England (Anglican). Then, Martin Luther and John Calvin both saw things that were wrong with the Catholic Church and so they came up with Lutheranism and Calvinism. There's a mini-history lesson for you. :]
Anything that is NOT Catholic is Protestant.

I think it's kind of like Catholic, but they don't receive commnunion and the minister can be married. I'm not 100% positive. That's what I remember from watching 7th Heaven, haha. I hope I helped somewhat.
