If you knew what you were talking about, then you'd know "masses" is always capitalized.

...the vast differences between Catholicism and Christianity.
This is an oxymoronic statement. There cannot be differences "between" Catholicism and Christianity because Catholicism is but one denomination of Christianity. Seriously now, Steve, your ignorance of Catholicism and dare I say, Christianity, is appalling. You're sounding like many of those of the Religious Right, which is not easy for me to say, considering that I tend to be a conservative individual ideologically and socially.
