Again, and I’ve said it multiple times now, for a religious organization that prides itself on organizing the Bible into book form, you sure do despise it.
What exactly in the Bible frightens Catholics so much?
And here it is. Catholics don’t “despise” the Bible or are “Frightened” by it. The truth is Many Protestants despise Catholics for some reason but very few Catholics despise Protestants. Wonder why that is.

If anything, we should be praying for each other and asking the Lord to open the eyes of those whom we think are blinded to the truth. If we are to pray for our enemies, how much more should we pray for those who claim the name "Christian" along with us?

Granted, there is a point to where beliefs become so different from what is believed to be essential to the faith that "brother" no longer applies, but we should be seeking to win each other over to the truth with kindness and patience.

Growing up Catholic and going to a Catholic school during my elementary years, I remember there being an attitude that only the priest was qualified to interpret the Bible, and individual Bible reading was never encouraged.
Some members of my Dad’s family went so far to tell us,” you’ll go crazy if you read the Bible!”
You can go back and read the tone about the Bible from Catholics in this thread and it’s easy to see it’s not one that is positive. And it’s a widespread sentiment that I see time and time again when Catholics speak about the Bible in threads like these. There is a pervasive attitude that the Bible is either a lesser source of information as church tradition or at best, only equal to tradition.
