Hi Toggle....people's ignorance in this day and age is abysmal.
Many people, especially Roman Catholics have no idea about other churches. Once I brought Roman Catholic to High Mass in Episcopal Church. She was amazed that we said the Lord's Prayer, Nicene Creed, etc. I responded "well, we don't jump up and down and shout hallelujah for a few hours and that our Mass is essentially the same. The two diffferences are that the closest we have to a Pope is the Archbishop of Canterbury and worst of all, we don't have BINGO!!!!!
As I stated earlier, catholic (small "c" is intentional) means universal.
