What to do with sects?

"But he said the spread of Protestantism showed that there was a
"thirst for God" in the region and that he intended to lay down a
strategy to answer that call when he meets with bishops from
throughout Latin America in a once-a-decade meeting in the shrine city
of Aparecida near Sao Paulo."
I was wondering why would someone leave the Catholic Church where
truth was built into the foundation? are the parishioners not educated
or do they think Religion is like consumerism, you get baptized into
what church suits your needs?
Since GOD only considers the Catholic Church the only church thats
legitimate, what are to become the other churches? do you think they
will be counted with the blessed? I know Church Teaching has it they
Might be saved..
"The pope will also face some opposition from within the Brazilian
church, where liberation theology - which links spiritual growth to
human rights - is still active among thousands of groups working with
poor and landless communities.
Benedict said those who follow liberation theology were "mistakenly
mixing faith and politics." But he stressed there hasn't been any
easing of the church's commitment to social justice."
Liberation doctrine = modern heresy?.. I'm not sure if they condemned
it as a heresy yet, thought if they did they will get the backlash of
it but this doesn't seem being obedient to the descendant of St.Peter
1 John 2:19 They went out from us, but they were not really of us; for
if they had been of us, they would have remained with us; but they
went out, so that it would be shown that they all are not of us.
28 Now, little children, abide in Him, so that when He appears, we
may have confidence and not shrink away from Him in shame at His
coming.

recognize Catholics as their Christian brethren.
Catholics who are upset about certain moral teachings or those
unconvinced of her claims or ill-prepared in catechesis programs are
often the ones to stray from Catholic unity into other sects or faith
communities.
Liberation theology suffers from a Marxist dialectic that is contrary
to Catholic faith. However, the Church finds solidarity with the poor
and the oppressed.
