Hey Petey..
Here’s a great video series (free to watch!) on ROMAN CATHOLICISM, from a Reformed PROTESTANT viewpoint. This series is from Dr. R. C. Sproul (a Bible Believing conservative Presbyterian).
Each of these 5 video messages is no more than 25 minutes or less. I think Dr. Sproul will answer all the questions you’ve posed here. He’s a great communicator as well, one of the best!

With Best Regards!
And Scott Hahn, Peter Kreeft, or Patrick Madrid books are great resources to hear the point of view of former Protestants who converted to Catholicism.
Thanks, Biblical! I appreciate this very much.
Petey
