That has been tried by some b4, but which works against the other class of RCs which invoke them for support of the claims of Rome to be of God, as since the Bible says there will be a great falling away in the church, and Rome testifies it, then she must be it, or (paraphrasing) how else but God could keep such a mess together?
I can think of one who has an interest in perpetuating false religion, but who is from below, while the second argument would also apply to those outside Rome, as even she of late includes believers as part of the mystical body.
But as in Scripture, authenticity of church and individual is not based upon what you claim to belong to or call yourself, but upon who you manifestly obey, you being the only Bible some will read, but with the supernaturally established transcendent Scriptures being the objective standard.
ABSOLUTELY INDEED.
