Catholics don't even know anything about their OWN religion. Gregorian reforms? Shit that never happened. Catholics will claim they used the Vulgate when that's just bogus, they had a huge bunch of hand copied manuscripts of the Vetus Latina, the Old Latin Bible(s?) and there were significant differences in all the manuscripts right up until Pope Gregory said "fuck it" and started using the Vulgate and then he took out a shit load of old practices. He changed the musical scales and all the hymns to fit the new scale. He forbade monks and nuns cohabitating (!) for obvious reasons. Churches were stripped of their vast pagan iconographies. Frescoes were removed and remodeled. Many churches essentially demolished and made anew. We can see in France, though, in the hinterlands, and Spain, and Ireland, what they were suppressing. Sheela-na-gig. Churches had ceremonies which evoke Bacchus, not Jesus Christ. Basically Luther called his bluff and the Pope had to gut a lot of pagan stuff out of the various Churches. They literally had an internal Inquisition.

Ask a Catholic about any of this and they will likely become completely enraged.
