Have members of Swiss Guard shown up at your house and demanded you attend Mass? Have roving gangs of Knights of Columbus come to your house of worship and installed kneelers and brought statues?

He built the Church on Peter (You are Peter and upon this rock...). We are called to unified in Christ. Therefore, unity is what we should achieve. Unity under the Vicar of Christ.

Christ calls all people to Himself.
True, very good statement!
We are called to unified in Christ. Therefore, unity is what we should achieve. Unity under the Vicar of Christ.
You were doing so well until that last sentence, but I made it true.
