That's because of the inevitable hang-up protestants have with the RCC as some sort of "elitist organization with external trappings."

It requires a different mindset.

I adjure you to support this accusation. It is important that you do.
And these FR catholic comments are indicative of the non-Berean mindset rife throughout Catholicism. The rejection of the brain and it's uses.
