Almost everything else is incidental and Catholics simply cannot tolerate shades of gray. With them is has to be black and white, period. No questions asked.

What I have found is that this claimed "unity" only shows up in disputes with non-Catholic Christians in an attempt to demonstrate a superior religion. In general practice, however, they pretty much tolerate a lot of different "points of views" among themselves - even among the very clergy that boasts of its unity!

God calls us into relationship with Him.

*Religion* is a construct of man. It's all the trappings man adds which he thinks please God. There is none which is superior to another. They're all an exercise in futility because religion saves no one. They're all dead ends.

Religion has done more harm to the cause of Christ than anything else Satan has come up with.
