Overall such Teddy K Catholics are manifestly considered to be members in life and in death. And Catholics are not supposed to be like evangelicals, and thus determine the validity of church teaching based upon their judgment of what ancient church teaching is, but broadly speaking,
'the one duty of the multitude is to allow themselves to be led, and, like a docile flock, to follow the Pastors," "to suffer themselves to be guided and led in all things that touch upon faith or morals by the Holy Church of God through its Supreme Pastor the Roman Pontiff," "of submitting with docility to their judgment," with "no discussions regarding what he orders or demands, or up to what point obedience must go, and in what things he is to be obeyed... not only in person, but with letters and other public documents ;" and 'not limit the field in which he might and must exercise his authority, " for "obedience must not limit itself to matters which touch the faith: its sphere is much more vast: it extends to all matters which the episcopal power embraces," and not set up "some kind of opposition between one Pontiff and another. Those who, faced with two differing directives, reject the present one to hold to the past, are not giving proof of obedience to the authority which has the right and duty to guide them," "Nor must it be thought that what is expounded in Encyclical Letters does not of itself demand consent."

Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty. (2 Corinthians 6:14,17-18) 1
Instead, RCs like you evidently want conservative evangelicals to leave their conservative evangelicals fellowships and become brethren with the likes of Nancy.
In addition to distinctive Catholic teachings that are not manifest in the only wholly inspired substantive authoritative record of what the NT church believed , which is Scripture, in particular Acts through Revelation, which best shows how the NT church understood the gospels:
