He cannot be properly or deeply Catholic. He can only be a hypocrite that likes the aesthetics of Catholicism, or in slightly more theological terms, a heretic.

I think lots of Catholics don't take that bit too literally though, eh? Like they might practice contraception despite what various Popes have said.
