if not considered another denomination?

In following religious threads it appears there are denominations, though as often denied as such, as well sects with Catholic overtones...calling themselves Catholics. I understand why they would not call them denominations...rather something else. Even people who leave the Catholic church and take membership in another church altogether are still considered Catholic....for that matter even those from the Reformation til now would in their minds still be Catholic..."Once a Catholic always a Catholic" has been stated more than once."

But this writing and many others does place them in a difficult situation to explain away....based on what has Romes approval, Bishops signature of approval and such this article bares the names of those who are well known in the Catholic faith...so as stated is it not... or is it indeed but I think only to the mind of one who is Catholic....otherwise it's quite apparent exactly what this is.

Still...hard to get ones heart and head around why Catholics have not removed this and other Mary and idolatry worship from their church? If Christ is to them what they "say" he is...these could not remain.
