There's a word for that in english

Being a "protesting Catholic" - it's called being Protestant.

I had zero tolerance for folk masses, anti-abortion diatribes, ecclesiastical greed, rote reciters of scripture and congregants who refused to sing. (After all, as St. Augustine said, “singing is twice praying.”)


Two notes. Firstly, if you don't agree with the core moral issues of the Church, I think you may have some issues with the rest of it. The Episcopals might be right up your alley. Secondly, I believe Augustine said "singing well is twice praying", though my Google-foo is weak tonight.
