It doesn't surprise me that out little hobbit has neither not heard of or doesn't understand the "no true Scotsman" fallacy.

The "Catholics are not REAL Christians" canard has been around since the time of Martin Luther. The church has traditionally replied with counter accusations,with as much force and validity,backed up by the beloved institution of the Spanish Inquistion. (which actually still exists under the title of "Society For The Propagation Of The Faith)
The church's public position on ecumenism is humbug.It tolerates other christian faiths but considers them ALL in error,and their members, "not true Christians'.
Non Christians tend to be rather bemused at the bickering between Christian sects and just laughs at all of them..
