[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is something about the Catholic attitude that isn't inclusive or open and that's what I find off-putting.  There is more [b]"my way or the highway[/b]" than in other religions -- and I am just talking about my first-hand experience as a non-Catholic who married a Catholic.  I didn't have this view until I went through the intrusive pre-Cana process, met with the priest, etc.  [/quote]

Not Catholic but I do not agree with this. At least they do not have this attitude that they are all saved and going to heaven because they are so special.[/quote]

Catholics are "saved" by continuously following the catechism of the church -- i.e., following the rules on a regular basis. It's not a one-time "being saved" as it is for some Protestants.

If Catholics  die in a state of grace, they will go to heaven.  If not, they go to purgatory and if they have people on earth to pray them out or buy them out with indulgences, they'll get to heaven faster than if no one is helping them out here on earth. [/quote]
