Mr. inJesus,
Here to you are showing your ignorance. It requires more time for me to clear all the doubts/objections you raised.
One thing at a time.
Just imagine, prior to your Church there were other groups in Christiandom. You can call them whatever you like based on your peculiar teachings/traditions of your church. But the fact remains…there were many groups and all of them had different views as to the nature of Jesus and his message. On the hand you have your Church view which contradicts all those early previous groups thus you call them heretics. But the heresy is according to your (Church’s) mind/view. In thier view you are heretics/idolators.
There is a group called Unitarians, who oppose your view of Jesus. They consider Jesus as man/Prophet only. And there is a multitude of various groups of Protestants who like to interpret Bible from their own in order to make some sense because to them your Catholic view is not right view.
So, when you look at this situation, what a man of justice should do? If he go by Catholics who says: The Bible is by no means so easily understood: St. Peter himself tells us that it contains many things: “… hard to be understood …” (
drbo.org/catechism.htm#lesson14 )
And your church further says, if you ask:
Question:
Do Protestants acknowledge the interpretation of the Church or of any other authority?
No; Protestants hold that anyone who reads the Bible in the proper spirit will be guided by the Holy Ghost in interpretation.
Question:
Is this belief of Protestants a sensible one?
No; it is against the Bible, against Tradition, against reason.
Question:* How is it against reason? *
Because the result of this belief has been that, as many interpretations exist as there are individual thinkers, and many of these interpretations contradict each other; since the Holy Ghost cannot contradict Himself, He cannot be the guide of these interpretations, and therefore, this belief of these Protestants is false.

From this you can see, all Protestnats are rejected as believers in false interpretation/reasoning because as per your Catechism:
Question:* Whom do we have to interpret the Bible for us? *
The Catholic Church interprets the Bible for us.
Question:* Is it natural that we should have a guide in interpreting the Bible? * Quite natural, just as in America, we have the Supreme Court to interpret the Constitution of the United States. The difference is that the Church is infallible and the Supreme Court is not!
Question:* So the Church cannot make mistakes in interpreting the Bible? *
No, for she is under the guidance of the Holy Ghost.

Thus for an independent person all these views of your numerous denominations, sects and cults are nonsense because they all blaspheme eachother but all claim to have got Holy Spirit yet ALL of them go in different directions and like to see their opponents in the Hell-fire.
The only solution to this dilemma is to read your Bible, objectively. But when you do an honest research, you will find contradictions, inconsistencies and improbabilities in all versions of the Bibles. These do not allow you to reconcile all the contradictory reports and narrations of Jesus and his own “uttered” words
There is only one way in it and that is to go by the main reason of Jesus’ mission, i.e his Prophet-hood. And that is he came not abolish the law or the Prophets but to fulfill and restore. If you keep/take this main aim of his prophethood and try to reconcile all other reports as much as the texts of the Bibles allow, you will reach to the Koranic conclusion.
Thats why honest and sincere research by the learned people of Christiandom and even from Jews, eventually lead them to embrace Islam as the only left right choice which fulfills the main aim of Jesus Christ (may God’s peace be up on him).
