Catholics in Europe and Asia tend to be a lot more knowledgeable while those from S.America tend not to be very (again, all of this is my personal experience)

My personal experience in the good old USA in a large city dominated by RC's is RC's don't read Scripture. My MIL (RC) was stunned the first time she came to our house and saw my Bible, with highlighter marking passages, sitting in the kitchen.

She asked, "what's this" (yes she recognized it).

I told her, "it's my Bible. I like to read in the morning with my coffee."

Her response was, "well we don't need that we go to church."

Unfortunately, she passed away before being saved.

Her reaction is not atypical here. I know lots of RC's some of my relatives still are RC. None of them study Scripture. None are interested in discussions about TULIP, or the 5 Solas. They are the walking dead. They have placed their faith in their church and they can't even present The Gospel when asked.

"Unfortunately, she passed away before being saved."

How on earth can you conclude this?
