And that - right there - is the crux of the problem. Most Catholics don't read their Bibles because the RCC teaches that their congregants must rely on the Church and her Priests to properly interpret the Scriptures, because the average person "can't understand them" and thus discourages personal Bible reading.
I live in a town that is predominately Catholic, and when I drive by their churches on Sunday, I never see anyone carrying a Bible.
When Catholics trust their Priests to tell them what the Bible says, and means, it's easy for them to fall into the pit of doctrinal error.
I have talked to many Catholics face-to-face, and they can only quote a few lines of Scripture (just the ones they hear spoken over and over in church every week), and little else.
As the Bible says; People "perish for lack of knowledge" (Job 36:12)
It's why you, mwc68, appeal to emotions instead of the Bible in your arguments.
