No, Catholicism is not the TRUE Christian religion. Let me explain: You can't baptize children, why? Because children have no sins and they are too young to understand the Word Of God. Worshipping the Virgin Mary and any other idols and statues is a sin. You don't confess your sins to the pope and you don't have to go to Heaven through the Pope. You must repent of your sins through prayer because you can only go through jesus Christ, in order for your sins to be forgiven by God. I have a long list, but I don't feel like posting anymore.
The Word of God has not been changed to accomodate present life. It's been translated in many different languages and there is the New International Version which is written in a way that we can understand, rather than the old elizabethan language. This does not mean that the bible has been changed. Also, there were old manuscripts and textuals found, that matched the the bibles that we have today. Punctuations and dictions were still the same. That also proves that the bible hasn't been changed. But, there is a debate going on whether or not people should change the bible. People wanted to make the bible short and to the point. I think that's wrong. They haven't decided to do that yet because there are people who are against changing it.
Alcar, you've also said that people have found evidence in Buddism too? How can they when Buddism does not consist a God? When you are Buddist, you follow the Eight Fold Path, try to reach Nirvana, and believe people suffer due to desires.

I hate to tell you but we are all born into sin thus we have sin within ourselves. It has been pass down since the days of Adam.
And the International version Bible is not the whole Bible. The Holy Bible has everything in it. The International doesn't.
Catholicism is the first christian religion then the others branched off from there. But the whole Christian faith originated from the Jewish faith. Even though they don't believe that Christ was the savor and the son of God.
