All of it. The basic teachings for the average people are sound, but the holier than thou aspect should be exorcised like a cancer.
If I had to choose specifics, however, I'd say Extra ecclesiam nulla salis or outside the Church there is no salvation. Gandhi is simply not going to hell, and neither are the other good people who weren't Catholics. That's a doctrine written by men and not a deity.
Then there is Papal Infallibility, a doctrine penned in July 1870 stating that the Holy See is protected from errors when speaking officially on matters of faith or morals. Two words: 1) Crusades. 2) Inquisition.
I call bullshit. Furthermore, for its forethought and knowing executions of malicious lies and atrocities in God's name, I excommunicate the ecumenical part of Christianity from itself.
Ha! Yes. The "Children's Crusade" definately spits in the face of the idea that the men who speak for God are infallible. I've always been fond of the concept of spending gold to buy your way into salvation. If that is not flawed, in itself, I'm reverting to cannibalism. I don't want an expensive paradise. I could go on and on with this subject, but it's impolite on someone else's journal.
