Yes. I didn't miss the disbelief in your tone, but Yes. Read some history and you can't miss that the conflict has been their since the beginning.

You may think I am ignorant of western history, but I am not the one that is looking at it though a modern protestant prism (more like a blinder). Are you aware that bible that you love so much and hold so much was put together and ratified by the very Church that you claim is at odds with it? Catholics have solid doctrinal reasons for practicing their faith the way they do (they have more books of the bible than protestants do that justify some of their practices). Maybe reading some noted Catholic apologists will deepen your understanding of the different doctrines within Christianity.

But ultimately I don't really care about this age-old works vs faith deal, I think your all nuts to one degree or another ;-)
