"No thanks, if I want screwy theology and anti-Catholic bigotry I'll turn on the 6 o'clock NEWS."

I'm going to come right out and tell you now: I'm Protestant. I think the Pope is fallible and that giving money to a church will not save your soul. You can't chant Hail Mary and get in to Heaven. It is with a personal (not via a bishop) relationship with God that one gets into Heaven.

I didn't read the entire article after I noticed the number of misquotes about HP there were. Observations of LOTR were overlooked on my part.

As Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen said, "There are not a hundred people in America who hate the Catholic Church—but there are millions who hate what they mistakenly think the Catholic Church teaches."

The Catholic Church teaches none of the propositions you mistakenly cite as Catholic beliefs.
