Do we (Catholics) share the same faith as the Methodists?
If you are honest with yourself, this is a blatant: "No, of course not."
There is some sophistry you could spin to argue the above point. Yes, they believe in Jesus Christ, baptism, a "similar" faith. And that is precisely what was done with the "Nouvelle Theologie," unity with non-Catholics at any cost, even to the point of denying the doctrines and dogmas that made the faith what it is. From a humanist understanding, its very hopeful, inclusive, diverse.... regardless of your religious denomination we are still united and can enter into the heavenly kingdom hand in hand singing kumbaya. Doctrines and dogmas is what separated us after all, and didn't Christ pray that "we all may be one."
History easily refutes these hopeful notions. Even recent papal encyclicals as well (IE Mortalium Animos-On Christian Unity)

What distinguishes the app from competitors is its use of what's known as channels: Public or private feeds of photos and videos that can be set up by one person or an organization. The channels have become popular with on-the-ground journalists, aid workers and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who broadcasts on a Telegram channel. The channels can be followed by an unlimited number of people. Unlike Facebook, Twitter and other popular social networks, there is no advertising on Telegram and the flow of information is not driven by an algorithm. Since January 2022, the SC has received a total of 47 complaints and enquiries on illegal investment schemes promoted through Telegram. These fraudulent schemes offer non-existent investment opportunities, promising very attractive and risk-free returns within a short span of time. They commonly offer unrealistic returns of as high as 1,000% within 24 hours or even within a few hours. At its heart, Telegram is little more than a messaging app like WhatsApp or Signal. But it also offers open channels that enable a single user, or a group of users, to communicate with large numbers in a method similar to a Twitter account. This has proven to be both a blessing and a curse for Telegram and its users, since these channels can be used for both good and ill. Right now, as Wired reports, the app is a key way for Ukrainians to receive updates from the government during the invasion. "The result is on this photo: fiery 'greetings' to the invaders," the Security Service of Ukraine wrote alongside a photo showing several military vehicles among plumes of black smoke. The next bit isn’t clear, but Durov reportedly claimed that his resignation, dated March 21st, was an April Fools’ prank. TechCrunch implies that it was a matter of principle, but it’s hard to be clear on the wheres, whos and whys. Similarly, on April 17th, the Moscow Times quoted Durov as saying that he quit the company after being pressured to reveal account details about Ukrainians protesting the then-president Viktor Yanukovych.
