Exactly. I asm Christian in that I believe in the words of Jesus Christ, but I do not believe in the words of any man, not even those who wrote the Old Testament nor the "letters" of the New Testament. I guess one could say that I am a "Christian purist" in that I believ in only the words of Jesus Christ.

As far as Catholicism goes, I feel that churches with hierarchies and idolatry, which of course are not specific to Catholicism but are most prominent in that denomination, go against the most basic teachings of Jesus (and Moses as well, but Moses was simply a man).

I don't feel that any follower (or non-follower) of any religion is my enemy. It is possible that God revealed Himself to other people in other ways - after all, I believe that God created all of us, not jsut a klatch of folk in the area near the Red Sea - and thus they may have a different version of the Creator whom they follow. But the "logos" as the popular kids say, must coincide. All men are created equal. Murder is wrong. The "Golden Rule". The "enemies" of my faith deny these truths. How they came to believe in the same truths as I believe in is of little consequence to me.
