I believe the Catholic Religion is preferred to others exactly because it does not rely on the Bible for the fundamentals. The Catholic Catechism lays out the rules with no room for interpretation. It's the same basis as the view of the American Constitution as a static document, not subject to interpretation. It's clear, concise and not prone to manipulation. On the other hand we have hundreds of contradictory Biblical interpretations and versions, each one claiming to be correct. Religion is supposed to guide one for a good life on earth and prepare one for a better life in heaven. The RCC is a complete document in that respect, it deals with man on a secular and non secular basis. I strongly suggest reading the RCC to see for yourself. You may not agree with it, but it does address the whole man in a clear way. It's my opinion that one would not find better elsewhere.

This is the same claim that the LDS make: Joseph Smith had MUCH greater insight and learning from 'god' and his extra writings fill in the blanks left by others.
