The difference is that evangelical churches do not accept or tolerate Christians who live opposite to their faith the way that the Catholic Church accepts people like Biden, Pelosi and others.

While i wish they would be openly excommunicated (they are considered to have excommunicated themselves), one must remember that Jesus came for all - sinners and saints and that this would be in the community HE founded.

Shunning out the sinners, even the egregious ones, leaves no room for them to repent - and as long as there is life, there is a chance they might repent.

...leaves no room for them to repent...

1 Corinthians 5:4-5 niv

4 When you are assembled in the name of our Lord Jesus and I am with you in spirit, along with the power of the Lord Jesus, 5 hand this man over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may be saved on the Day of the Lord.

Do Catholics ever do any more bible study after they’ve been initially catechized?

It seems that POORLY and/or IMPROPER catechism gets the blame for those members who do not publicly toe the line taught by Rome.
