Catholicism is true Christianity. Jesus established the Catholic Church in 33AD,not 38,000 denominations, or non denominations as in the Protestant religions. As for Catholic Christians we believe in the following:
We believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all that is seen and unseen. We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, one in being with the Father. Through Him all things were made. For us men and our salvation He came down from heaven: by the power of the Holy Spirit, He was born of the Virgin Mary , and became man. For our sake He was crucified under Pontius Pilate; He suffered, died, and was buried. On the third day He rose again in fulfillment of the scriptures: He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end. We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son. With the Father and the Son, He is worshiped and glorified. He has spoken through the Prophets. We believe in one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church. We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins. We look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen.
Even tho Catholic and Protestants both believe in and worship the same God , the Protestant churches have a more watered down version of Christ. The Protestant churches only recognize 2 of the 7 Sacraments that Jesus gave to His church.
With the 38,000 denominations of Protestant religions their beliefs are all different being that all have a different interpretation of the bible.
The Catholic Church compiled and canonized the Holy Bible is the 4th century. Get a NAB or a Douey Rheims Bible, they are complete all 73 books

I do not feel that anybody desires to have infants simply to overcome a different faith. That sounds alternatively abnormal! Islam is the fasting developing faith on the earth and no longer out of drive (a few persons feel it is considering the fact that a person forces his spouse to be Muslim, however Muslim guys can marry non-Muslim ladies, so long as they consider within the different devout texts). There is a small minority of Muslims who're sadly no longer advertising Islam in the way in which that it must be: peaceable and filled with love for one a different and mankind. Islamic remedy is the most important, global Muslim enterprise that is just like the Red Cross, serving to the deficient and underprivileged. People can sponsor a youngster in more than a few nations, spend a few cash, purchase meals applications for households in for illustration Sudan or Palestine, offering blank water presents, offering right schooling for kids and so on On the opposite, one of the crucial 5 pillars of Islam is SPENDING IN CHARITY. This is what each and every Muslim has to do. Therefore, sadly probably you've got the mistaken evaluation approximately Islam. We also are well persons. There are continuously unhealthy persons in each and every unmarried social, ethnic or devout organization on the earth.
It is good that you want her to learn about God. Now, the question becomes, HOW do you want her to learn about God.
As an Orthodox Christian myself, since Orthodoxy is not offered, apparently, my advice is to put her in the Roman Catholic class. Catholics, Orthodox and Romans alike, were the original Christians; the word Catholic was first used in a letter from St Ignatius of Antioch to the Smyrnenians in around 107 AD. I can bet that any Protestant class will not take into account the early church. Scripture, yes, but not the early church.
The history of the church is equally important to knowing Christianity. Let no one tell you different.
Well, Muslim isn't Christian, by definition. The original Christian Church is Catholic instituted by Christ Himself. Protestant didn't come along until the 1600s. If you are going to study Christianity, study the original, Catholic.
FYI, I was protestant most of my life but converted. I've seen both sides. I wished I was born as a cradle Catholic. So much I missed. Do your daughter a favor and enroll her in Catholic. And while you are at it, you could enroll yourself at in adult Catholic education at your local parish. You won't be sorry.
And for those who alege that protestants are "pure" Christianity, the historical writings of the "Church Fathers" proves otherwise. These ancient Christians of the first four centuries prove Catholic doctrine over and over and over again.

Roman Catholic. God Bless you.
Well, if you want to teach her about God, all the three religions believe in (the same) God. Just read some about the three religions in stead of asking here. A Catholic will tell you to pick 'Catholic' a Muslim will tell you 'Muslim'.
You can put her in the 'no religion group' and instead YOU can teach her about God
Take the Catholic, the source of all christian religion.
Muslim is not christianity.
Catholics will tell you to choose Catholicism.
Protestants will tell you to choose Protestantism.
Muslims will tell you to choose Islam.
Atheists will tell you to pick none of the above.
So what's the point of asking about it here? Seriously. Pick what you think is best.
Btw, since I'm a Muslim, I'll tel you to choose Islam so that your daughter can learn about a religion that most non-Muslims know next to nothing about. At least that way, if she were to ask a question on R&S about Islam, I wouldn't have to think "Ignorant!"

She'll get more Bible teaching in a Protestant class and thus a more pure Christianity.
