As it's been said. Where there is the Eucharist, there is the Catholic Church. Universality is a concept that protestants haven't come to understand yet.
FOTFLOL!!!! Those are CATHOLIC things.
What an indictment of Catholicism.
Hey, we're not the ones who adorn our churches with statues that we bow down to and pray to. WE don't say rosaries and add all the bells and whistles to our *worship* of God. I don't see Christian pastors dressed in long robes wearing fancy red shoes. Nor do we pray to dead people's body parts.
Take away from the Catholic church all the externals that you mentioned, and no Catholic would recognize it as Catholic.
Wow. You know, it just hit me. How fickle the faith of a protestant. They are so obsessed with statues, rosaries, garments, pagan practices, Harry Potter you name it. They are so focused on externalities because they really have no faith in the power of Christ.

They really ought to add a statue of Spongebob Squarepants. It’s high-time for a Patron Saint of Bikini Bottom.
