So people just think that because of all the corruption that Catholicism has had in the past, we are committing a heresy?

No, it is because some of the things Catholics believe and promote go directly against what is actually taught in Scripture.

Many people look at Catholicism and they o my see what they think they see. Many people don't understand the truth and meaning behind what we believe.

Many here grew up in the RCC. We know what they believe.

That looks like a bit of word salad there. Quite a few here came out of Catholicism. They understand it just fine.

Don't think we're stupid or lack understanding just because we don't believe what you want to.

Sorry about the typing, I had to do it quick because I had to help my little sister. I just meant that a lot of people look into Catholicism and only see what they think is bad. I didn't mean everyone and I certainly didn't mean to offend anyone.

My whole family is Baptist and are very strict when it comes to God. I recently did I study on Catholicism (which is another denomination of Christianity) at school and I fell in love with the idea of it. I started to talk to my Catholic friends about it and they helped me to understand it better. After I was sure I wanted to convert, I got online and found a website where I could talk to a Catholic priest. I converted a few days ago, so I'm going to have to tell my family soon. I'm afraid to tell th because I know they will not be happy. I have a strong feeling that they will reject me or not consider me the same person anymore. Any advice and prayers are welcomed and appreciated. God bless!
While I applaud your search for truth, I'm sorry to hear that you have settled for a lie. May God graciously remove the scales from your eyes and set you free from the error you have embraced.

For the OP and any others who are ignorant as to the false gospel of Catholicism...
