If you go to the Vatican you will not find literature telling people Protestants or the Eastern Christians (e.g. Copts, Armenians, Assyrians and Maronites) are terrible and evil.
You've got to hand it to the rcc, the world's richest organisation, deeply steeped in money laundering and tax evasion, can even convince non-believers that they can't afford to fix the gutters on their high vale palaces. And I wouldn't be too sure about the rcc not calling other denominations evil, the holocaust had direct catholic roots (protestant too), not too long ago the church in Italy could legally abduct jewish children if it had been found out they had been adopted behind their parents' back. I also remember cases in Ireland in the 60's where Jehovah Witnesses were severely beaten after pulpit denunciations, and nothing was done to the assaulters or those who incited it (speech which amounts to incitement to hatred was then and is now a crime here).
The rcc is better at seeming reasonable than most other cults, that is all.
Except when they are ass-raping children. That one gives them a small problem.
