What IS the difference between Catholicism and Christianity? (please don’t kill me for asking this)?

Question by char393: What IS the difference between Catholicism and Christianity? (please don't kill me for asking this)?

Ok so my friend Hannah is Pentecostal, and I am Catholic. I mentioned something about Catholicism and Christianity being similar and she gave me the death glare, and screamed how it was not, and then refused to tell me the difference. Please explain? Oh AAAAANNNNDDDDD Hannah always preaches to me about how Christianity is 'sooo different' and that Christians are closer to God, what’s that about?
