Are you teaching Catholics about their faith?
Say what?
Pope Eugene IV and the Council of Florence (A.D. 1438 - 1445): "[The most Holy Roman Church] firmly believes, professes, and proclaims that those not living within the Catholic Church, not only pagans, but also Jews and heretics and schismatics cannot become participants in eternal life, but will depart `into everlasting fire which was prepared for the devil and his angels' (Matt. 25:41), unless before the end of life the same have been added to the flock; and that the unity of the ecclesiastical body is so strong that only to those remaining in it are the sacraments of the Church of benefit for salvation, and do fastings, almsgiving, and other functions of piety and exercises of Christian service produce eternal reward, and that no one, whatever almsgiving he has practiced, even if he has shed blood for the name of Christ, can be saved, unless he has remained in the bosom and unity of the Catholic Church."
What does the Catechism say?
They're making some progress though.
"No salvation outside the Church" has been changed to one can be saved outside the Church.
They recently cut Mary out as a co-Redeemer.
In another couple of centuries they will be considered Baptists.
It's all turning the other way I'm afraid, everyone is starting to see the truths of the Catholic Church, even through the deepest darkest and most entrenched prejudices they have been nursing all their lives, and in their communities and families.
Bible aloners are seeing their new human traditions and interpretations for what they are, unscriptural and unhistoric.
They are returning to true doctrinal Christianity, the Catholic Faith, and leaving chaos of human interpreted religions.

Not hardly, I've never understood it.

Is that the updated version?

Well that sounds nice and I hope everything works out.

@Cathode
Would you say Catholicism has changed considerably since the Reformation took solid ground?
Be honest you're not going to be assassinated. At least not by me.
