I'm not getting the allusion. Are you taking about the native American athlete?

Indian athlete, yes. So the church down the street , Vatican, Francis all say their Catholic. They aren't.

What religion people are is entirely their belief system.

If you're going to claim that they're not the religion that they think they are simply because their logic is faulty, you've got no religions.

God revealed Himself. Catholic faith is based on reason, logic

The purpose of this world is to prepare us for next. And God did not cause those infants suffering... Your sins and my sins and original sin of Adam and Eve did.

You expect God to go down your laundry list of suffering, end all of it. And then I have this vague feeling you would absolutely turn your back on Him.
