Perhaps you might tune out the Catholic bashers and listen to Catholic radio or ask questions of a Priest. Education does a lot to eliminate prejudices and there is no question that there is prejudice against Catholics from Protestants.

I have educated myself on Roman Catholicism through independent study and interactions with Roman Catholics on these forums.
Below is the concluding sentence in what is called Unam Sanctam. It was issued by Pope Boniface VIII in 1302.

Roman Catholics have to believe this.
They have no choice in the matter.
Some will try to say it doesn't mean what it says.
Furthermore, we declare, we proclaim, we define that it is absolutely necessary for salvation that every human creature be subject to the Roman Pontiff.
This is but one of the examples of how Roman Catholicism contradicts the New Testament.
The issue is ... how is that relationship appropriated?
I dare say that I think you are in need of more education on the truth of the matter.
Can you develop a taste for the pretend flesh and blood of the Risen Lord? You’re on your way to that Roman Catholic Religion then!
