I think the Catholic Church is pretty firm on Christ being the only path to salvation. I think Church Law gives some people a "pass"--people who've never been taught the Gospel, people who die before the age of spiritual maturity, that sort of thing--but, overall, they're all about Jesus. Most Christian denominations are.
The Catholic Church also holds that they are the best way to Christ. I think they recognize most Christian churches as valid, they just believe that Catholicism is the best, fullest expression of Christianity and is Christ's true church.
There's a book I've been meaning to read..."Zen Catholicism". You might find it interesting (and then you can tell me all about it).
