Way too many Catholic FReeprs on this forum reinforce on a daily basis my decision to leave the Catholic church. They are no different than the Catholics I grew up with and worked with.
A more callous group of people claiming to be followers of Christ exists. There’s nothing more condescending and judgmental than a Catholic who thinks they’ve arrived. The whole religion fosters a superior to thou attitude.
As nothing has changed in their attitudes and words towards *outsiders*, nothing is going to change in my status.

That’s been a LOT of my experience too—but far worse hereon.

Yes, and they don't see it.
I do hope that you are following the Lord and his Word via a local church.
FWIW, I won't answer most of the responses in this thread - they are essentially knee-jerk responses and there's little interest on their part for genuine discussion or dialogue. If any of them wish to have a dialogue they can use FReepMail.
You are being unfair, but even if your generalization was correct, it does not justify turning away from God. The Catholic Church was established by Christ as the sole means of salvation. The niceness of other sinners who answer the call should be a secondary concern.
