It might "preach" it at times, but "believing" it is another matter.

Do you have some omniscient gift which enables you to discern what the Church "believes" (and I mean the Church as a whole, I have no doubt that we can find individual Catholics and Protestants, both clergymen and laymen, who do not actually believe what they profess)?

Yes -- my ability to read.
