This is very true. I suppose you can't fault the Catholics, as their faith has always been based more on tradition than the Bible. I remember in the high school that I attended (a Catholic one) we only had one required religious class that utilized the Bible. The interpretations were sometimes very odd and a bit erratic, but always entertaining.
