What you have against wax candles, pious gestures and wholly biblical practices such as praying for the dead is beyond me. The point I'm trying to make is that much of this list is simply silly stuff! Wax candles? Priests cloths,the word Pope? How juvenile! You should take the time to re read the entire refutation at the link and really think about why someone would compile such a silly list.
Simple. There are so many things the Catholic Church promotes as “faithfulness” to God which have nothing to do with God. Whether you want to eat hot dogs, steak, or bananas is irrelevant to “faith.” But when the church teaches, and its people embrace, the importance of eating hot dogs, or steak, or bananas as opposed to something else they detract from the core of Christianity, which is to love God with all your heart, and your neighbor as yourself, and involves telling the truth and preaching the gospel so the lost can come to true faith in Christ which is internal, though it manifests itself outwardly.
I didn’t compile the “list,” I just cut and paste it to show the silly, extra-biblical or anti-biblical teachings/traditions/practices the Catholic church has embraced (or unembraced) over the years. And, from time to time, executed other people of true faith who dared to disagree with her.
