Because they dont accept the authority of Catholic dogma, which is essentially an interpretation of Scripture. But of course even Holy Scripture is not, for them, truly the Word of God, except in some poetical sense.

Then, they are really neither Catholic or Christian and this fact should be brought to their attention. Why would they call themselves Catholic/Christian and spurn the very foundation of their faith. Priests/pastors have to become bold in denouncing that which contradicts the Word of God. People have to know they are going to hell and don’t even know it.
