Was this faith influenced by Gnosticism. Would the Jehovah's Witnesses by a
Modern day form of Arianism. They view Jesus Christ as a lesser  being.

The term catholic with a small c  means universal church, but the term  with
C means Roman Catholic. They may have used the reference with a small c, but
not with capital. In the  Apostles Creed used by the Methodist Church the
holy catholic church means universal. I do not have the creed used by
Arianism wish I did so I could compare the two. But if Arianism did not
believe in the Triune God it would do me no good to compare the two.

Leovigild referred to Arianism as "our Catholic faith": "King Leovigild
assembled a synod of bishops of the Arian sect in the city of Toledo and
amended the ancient heresy with a new error, saying, 'those coming from the
Roman religion to our Catholic faith ought not to be baptized...'"  Kenneth
Baxter Wolf, _Conquerors and Chroniclers of Early Medieval Spain_ Liverpool
Press, 1990, pg 58.
