Well that's on you. I don't believe in your One, True, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church. Jesus sent us the Holy Spirit not a man made denomination. If Jesus returned as a man today, He would not be Catholic. He was a Jew. All of the Disciples were Jews. They worshiped on the Sabbath and would never give obeisance to a homo promoting hypocrite that lives in a palace. He's the kind of man they abhorred and your denomination with its rituals and statuary they would admonish.
Martyrdom is rightly reserved for fealty to the One True Holy God and nothing else.
That's your loss.

Bob, Catholics say that they can define sin in changing God’s law (...they have the power). Evangelicals bow down to them ever Sunday. They are the SAME, joining hands together in practicing abominations. The protest is over. Haven’t you heard? There is absolutely no difference in saying one can CHANGE God’s law, OR, that it has no effect on OSAS/OJAJ and they can sin with impunity. Catholics and Sunday-keep Evangelicals worship are the SAME. In the end, there are only 2 classes of people on earth...those who keep God’s law, including His 7th-day-Sabbath, and those who don’t.
“The Bible says, Remember that thou keep holy the Sabbath day. The Catholic church says, No! By my divine power I abolish the Sabbath day, and command you to keep the first day of the week. And lo, the entire civilized world bows down in reverent obedience to the command of the holy Catholic church!” Father Enright, C.S.S.R. of the Redemptoral College, Kansas City, Mo., History of the Sabbath, p. 802
“Not the Creator of Universe, in Genesis 2:1-3, –but the Catholic Church can claim the honor of having granted man a pause to his work every seven days.”-S. C. Mosna, Storia della Domenica, 1969, pp. 366-367.
“The Pope is of great authority and power that he can modify, explain, or interpret even divine laws… The Pope can modify divine law, since his power is not of man, but of God, and he acts as vicegerent of God upon earth.” -Lucius Ferraris, Prompta Ribliotheca, “Papa,” art. 2, translated.
“The Pope has the power to change times, to abrogate laws, and to dispense with all things, even the precepts of Christ.” “The Pope has the authority and often exercised it, to dispense withthe command of Christ.”Decretal, de Tranlatic Episcop. Cap. (The Pope can modify divine law.)Ferraris’ Ecclesiastical Dictionary.
It has been said “bow down before the one you serve, you’re going to get what you deserve”
