“Catholicism is the most difficult faith to follow. Their “laws” haven’t changed in 2000 years”

The foundational tenets that form the basis for Catholic teaching are true for eternity. They come from Jesus Christ and over 2000 years of tradition and theology.

What you describe as the “laws” that are derived from these truths are made by men and are therefore imperfect and can change. But they change only if the remain consistent with the underlying verities that the faith is based on.
