I agree. And Catholics also do a bunch of stuff, IMO that is wrong, according to the bible.

(1)Worshipping Mary and the saints. (That's a biblical nono.)
(2)Praying the rosary (jesus said not to recite prayers over and over, but to mean them.)
(3)Adding to the word of God. (Biblical nono.) (Mormons also do this)
(4)The pope is not infallible or without sin.

There's a whole lot more, but my big problem with Catholicism are those. There are a whole bunch of websites that will list hundreds of things Catholics do that is not in the bible, and it's because they don't follow it word for word.

I think that's wrong.
