and most believed they could be good Roman Catholics without going to Mass. Nope. Sadly they are mistaken and in need of more education. The Catholic faith is centered around the Eucharist. And the only way you can recieve it is to go to Mass. If you don't go to Mass, you are not in communion through the Eucharist and therefore, not a Roman Catholic (maybe Roamin' Catholic).

Exactly right!
The further you get away from the Eucharist, the further you get away from God.
