Absolutely they should 'Get Out' of the Harlot = Revelation ch18
Then I heard another voice from heaven say:
“Come out of her, My people,
so that you will not share in her sins...."
With THAT SAID, the Holy Spirit may keep them there for a couple of reasons:
a.) to bear Witness to the Truth in hopes of reaching others who are lost in RCC darkness
b.) they may never acquire the Power of the Spirit to SEE beyond Christ crucified for their sins
c.) only God knows the heart = Hebrews ch4
"For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account."
Idolatry is a very hard thing to let go of = just look at the Jewish People to this day.
Observe the 'pre-trib rapture' idol = a highly cherished/worshipped idol amongst many/most christians today.
JUST AS RCC, the pre-fib rapture idol has NO PLACE in Scripture nor in God's Heart for us and is the main divisive sin today.

Unity sounds great and some day we'll get there.
But there's one serious problem with the false unity of ecumenism: It seeks to join under one banner all faiths and religions. But Jesus said the way is narrow that leads to life and few find it. Ecumenism teaches the way is broad and welcomes everyone. Jesus said this is the road that leads to destruction.
Catholicism want to join hands with everyone: Buddhists, Muslims, Hindus; you name it.

The #1 reason to reject/FLEE from RCC is that it is a perversion of the Gospel = satanic. John 1:1-21
The next reason to FLEE the RCC is that FATHER said so in His Word = SEE reason #1
The third reason to FLEE the RCC is that Jesus said so: Luke 11:33-36
"No one, when he has lit a lamp, puts it in a secret place or under a basket, but on a lampstand, that those who come in may see the light. The lamp of the body is the eye. Therefore, when your eye is good, your whole body also is full of light. But when your eye is bad, your body also is full of darkness. Therefore take heed that the light which is in you is not darkness. If then your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, the whole body will be full of light, as when the bright shining of a lamp gives you light.”
Luke 11:33-36

Agree, however, I think you would find many Catholics do not really pray to the saints and all that much anymore, perhaps more in South America.
In my experience, most Catholics sitting in the pews are very liberal minded, believe in basic tenets of Christianity somewhat, and really do not know all that much about the teachings of the church.

C
My personal take on holy communion, is that it refers to the communion (gathering together) of people made holy by their belief in and faithfulness towards Jesus.
The act people carry out in some churches, and sometimes called 'Holy Communion', is a contemporary but more often used version of the Passover feast that Israel honours each year.
Before Jesus' ministry on earth, God used various measures, including annual remembrances of significant historical events, to help keep the minds and hearts of the Israelites directed towards Him.
After Jesus' ministry here, each Christian has been given the Holy Spirit who will keep our minds and hearts directed towards God, every day.
