Can Catholics be godparents to children of another Christian denomination?
ANSWER! / COMMENT!
As Baptized Catholics we are called to obedience in all that the church instructs us to do whether we agree with it or not. The wisdom of the church teaches us obedience here on earth in order to obtain our eternal reward by the grace of God, which is heaven.

IV COMMUNION IN LIFE AND SPIRITUAL ACTIVITY AMONG THE BAPTIZED
A. THE SACRAMENT OF BAPTISM
98. It is the Catholic understanding that godparents, in a liturgical and canonical sense, should themselves be members of the Church or ecclesial Community in which the baptism is being celebrated. They do not merely undertake a responsibility for the Christian education of the person being baptized (or confirmed) as a relation or friend; they are also there as representatives of a community of faith, standing as guarantees of the candidate's faith and desire for ecclesial communion.
a) However, based on the common baptism and because of ties of blood or friendship, a baptized person who belongs to another ecclesial Community may be admitted as a witness to the baptism, but only together with a Catholic godparent.107 A Catholic may do the same for a person being baptized in another ecclesial Community.
