C# is basically Visual Basic with C-style code

Anyone disagree with this statement?

I'm new to C# and did Visual Basic a long time ago but that is pretty much what I'm discovering.

No, C# is more like a slightly modified version of Java.

Except Java is multi-platform. Does Java use a point and click interface?

C# is cross-platform too, look into monodevelop.

C# is exactly like C but just a half-step higher.

See, it may be a half step above C, but I think the do-it-all god-over-your-computer language is still C++. The only problem is being god over your computer makes you customize every aspect of your programming, which can be annoying.

Neither C# nor Java specifically have a "point and click" interface. Java has AWT and Swing, while C# has WinForms and GTK#. They are not part of the language, but rather libraries that are commonly used.

In my opinion that is a point and click interface as opposed to C++ gui programming which is completely a pain and is done solely by text. I know Visual C++ attempted to make this point and click but it sucked.

C# is more of a mix of C++ and Java. Cross platform also thinks to Mono... WinForms isn't supported in Linux, so you would need to take a look at GTK#

You're confusing the language with the products that aid you in developing it. C# as a language is not "point and click"; it consists of plain text files that get compiled, just like C or C++. Visual Studio/Sharpdevelop do an excellent job of hiding that and making it look pretty, but it's still there.
