All Christians are equal.
Some are more equal than others.
The more equal Christians get to decide that they are Christians and that Catholics are not Christians.
They both have the right to follow whatever faith they want according to the United Nations.

2 Timothy chapter 3 verse 15, "the Church is the pillar and foundation (ground) of truth."

I really want to know what version was used to find this. KJV says the holy scriptures. KJ21 says the holy scriptures. NKJV says holy scriptures. NIV says the holy scriptures. ASV says sacred writings. AMP says sacred writings. CEB says holy scriptures. CJB says holy scriptures. CEV says holy scriptures. DARBY says sacred letters. I went through every English bible on BibleGateway and NONE said Church. They all said holy/sacred  scriptures/writings/letters.

He got the wrong Timmy. It's in 1 Timothy 3:15

I copied it from an earlier post and forgot to fix the mistake.

as i said before, read acts 2

Acts chapter 2: the biblical account of the first disciples to receive the holy spirit, (the 3k converts is reference to 3k dissidents in OT and golden calf), this is recreated many times, (usually on Easter) in the sacrament of confirmation, so that everyone receives the Holy Spirit and becomes a "soldier" for Christ.

Again, Jesus said multiple times that works are required, the preaching was what got them to convert in the first place.

Well I this should settle the whole debate about Catholics and whatnot

                            Matthew 8: 14-15

Jesus went to Peter’s home, and there he saw Peter’s mother-in-law sick in bed with a fever. He touched her hand; the fever left her, and she got up and began to wait on him

There you go, Peter had a mother-in-law so he was married, so he couldn't have been pope.

There you go, Peter had a mother-in-law so he was married, so he couldn't have been pope.

why does him being married mean he couldn't have been pope, and how do you know his wife wasn't already dead?

Quite a few popes have been married. For many years of the Church's history, celibacy was considered optional. Based on the customs of the times, it is assumed by many that like Peter, most of the Apostles were married and had families. It was only in the Middle Ages where the Church officially sanctioned celibacy, although we all know that a few of them still flaunted the rules.

In fact, some Catholic scholars, such as Peter Fink and George T. Dennis SJ of Catholic University of America, have argued that we cannot know if priests in early Christianity practised sexual abstinence. Dennis says "there is simply no clear evidence of a general tradition or practice, much less of an obligation, of priestly celibacy-continence before the beginning of the fourth
  century. (Dennis, George T. SJ on Cochini, C. The Apostolic Origins of Priestly Celibacy (book review), Theological Studies, 52:4 (1991:Dec.) p.738)
