I don't act like the RC Church never killed people.

Really? Then are you ready to repudiate the men who did? Their names have popped up repeatedly in this thread as authoritative with regard to the things of G-d. The fact is, when some of your scholars and leaders clearly were murders then it stands to reason that they cannot be used as authoritative. That, my friend is why many simply go back and say, sola scriptura - because in the end, ALL of us have people in our spirtual ancestry that we would not want to follow. In other words, when picking a traditions, follow the ones that adhere to Scripture, instead of following the men that came up with them.

If you lack the ability to understand that Catholics do follow Scripture, that's not my problem.

In the meantime, I'd suggest to you that dredging up ancient history to support a (nonexistent) point is not going to get you very far.
