Catholic vs. Protestant?

I there anyone out there who is truly interested in studying the differences between Catholicism and Protestantism? I did for years, and found it quite informative. If you are, may I suggest two items which I really enjoyed:
"The Bible Answer Man Debate", Jimmy Akin vs James White (CD) ( go to http://shop.catholic.com/cgi-local/SoftCart.exe/online-store/scstore/p-CA131.html?L+scstore+chxm7635ff281528+1194371385 )
"Catholicism & Fundamentalism" by Karl Keating (Book) ( go to http://www.amazon.com/Catholicism-Fundamentalism-Attack-Romanism-Christians/dp/0898701775/ref=pd_bxgy_b_text_b/102-6540326-5912952 )

I’ve done some studying myself (ex-protestant who is now Catholic) and this is how I’ve always answered it:

The difference between the two starts off historically. The Catholic Church is THE Church founded by Christ 2,000 years ago, given the deposit of faith and authority by Him. Protestantism is a break for the Church 500 years ago.

I normally don’t attempt to explain protestant beliefs because I feel it is futile. Protestantism as a whole is a huge collection of thousands of denominations/sects that at their base, believe in Christ, but in their doctrines, do not believe or teach the same things, yet each claims to be right. The contradictions always look like a bee swarm of biblical confusion in my head.

I’d like to add that jprentice3 needs to clarify his claims about the Church. Does he have proof, or will he just spout the same ragged out garbage I see everyday from anti-Catholics like him?

The Catholic Church and the Bible $11.95 Are Catholics biblical illiterates? So goes the frequent question, proving that myths die hard. But Catholics ought to be able to answer the charge made by many non-Catholics in this regard. This book is a response to Fundamentalist critics and an explanation of the Catholic biblical tradition. The Catholic Church and the Bible is a significant scriptural study guide, published from a Catholic perspective and particularly keyed to the new Catechism of the Catholic Church. The well-planned, straight-forward text is clearly outlined to make information easy to find and understand. Main topics include: - The Catholic understanding of the Bible - God's Word and its purpose in the Church - A biblical theology of the Mass, the place of the Bible in the Sacred Liturgy - A question-and-answer section that deals with pertinent and popular inquiries made by Catholics and non-Catholics alike This work should be heartily welcomed by both clergy and laity, for Father Stravinskas sheds new light on Catholic Bible study by writing with candor, clarity and scriptural backing. This is ideal for high schools and RCIA programs. "An excellent tool for the Catholic apologist. The reader has everything in one place: pithy answers plus biblical and magisterial citations. Fr. Stravinskas is the best priest-apologist in the country." "Karl Keating, Author, Catholicism and Fundamentalism Fr. Peter M.J. Stravinskas is the well-known editor of the The Catholic Answer magazine, a contributing editor to National Catholic Register , and has written over 500 articles for numerous Catholic publications.
