It is spiritual riches beyond the imaginings of those who have not been to that well. By comparison, and I say this as one who was raised a protestant and only became Catholic in his late forties, protestants are impoverished, subsisting on a few crumbs fallen from the banquet table.
If you stand today's average Protestant against today's average Catholic, ... I don't believe that it's the Protestant who will look spiritually impoverished."For most Americans, going to religious services means going to church, since 83 percent of adults in this country are Christians. Forty-six percent of Protestants attend church at least weekly, peaking at 52 percent of Baptists. Just over two-thirds of Baptists are in the South, far more than elsewhere (the Midwest is next, at just 17 percent). That's one reason church attendance in the South is higher than elsewhere.
Fewer Catholics, 38 percent, report attending church on at least a weekly basis. Men are the reason: As noted, 26 percent of Catholic men say they attend church that regularly, compared to 42 percent of Protestant men. There's no such difference between Protestant and Catholic women — about half in each group say they go to church at least once a week.

Oranges and lemons. He was not speaking of anything as pedestrian as mere church attendence. Those attending Protestant Churches are, in general, not being given the fullness of Truth and are not being fed sacramentally either. They present a piece as if it were the whole Enchilada. Nay, as if it were the entire banquet.
