What is the Catholic Church's attitude to people of other faith?
Roman Catholic AnswerThe Catholic Church's attitude to all people, regardless of what faith they belong, or even if they belong to none, is that they are children of God, created by God in His image. That He loves them and wants them to be saved and to be with Him in Heaven for all eternity. The Catholic Church's attitude towards them is that every Catholic is bound in conscience to serve his brothers and sisters as Christ, we will be judged on whether we treat every individual in front of us as Christ. The Catholic Church's attitude to people of other faith is one of love.
Where does it say in the Catholic Bible that baptism can be done by sprinkling?

The only thing that makes it a "Catholic" Bible is the guarantee in the front of it that it conforms to the Bible as accepted by the Church since the fourth century. And, no, nowhere in the Bible does it say anything about sprinkling for baptism.

If your Roman Catholic can you go to a Church of England Church Service?
Officially, if you are not confirmed a Roman Catholic then you are excluded from receiving communion (mass) in the Roman Catholic Church. However, the Church of England is very different. Most CofE clergy will allow anyone who normally takes communion in their own church (whatever denomination) to take communion in a Church of England if they are, say, visiting. Very few clergy these days only allow confirmed Anglicans to take communion, and these tend to be in the churches with a more Catholic tradition akin to the Roman Church. In some more progressive Anglican churches, clergy will allow anyone to take communion as long as they come in faith, whatever denomination and whether confirmed or not. As a confession (!!) I have myself, as a member of the Church of England, received communion in a Catholic Church without the priest knowing that I was not a Catholic, at one time even at a mass presided over by Pope John Paul II. No doubt, had he known, I may well have been refused. I regarded, and still do, the receipt of communion a matter that resides solely between myself and God and so it should not have any dependence upon a man-made Church rule but on God's loving grace and a personal faith.
