How is anyone "saved" if they leave, nor fail to enter the Church that Christ founded?

Jesus founded the catholic church, not the Roman Catholic church, that did not exist until Constantine. He is the father of the Roman church, not Christ.

He took a church that had a biblical basis and added to it all manner of pagan practices that Catholics today call "tradition"

You don’t need to be a member of a church to be saved. Ask the thief who died on the cross with Jesus.

That's myth pretending to be history.

Almost everything you think is "pagan" can be shown to exist long before Constantine, and there's no evidence he added a thing.
