re: WHY AMERICAN CATECHISTS DON'T TEACH THE CATECHISM
Still playing catch up. Came across this article, WHY AMERICAN CATECHISTS DON'T TEACH THE CATECHISM on EWTN. I still think it's my fault for not getting it the first time, I know the junk I dabbled with but was there a problem with Catechesis in the 80's? I wish I remembered more from those days but I don't. My attention obviously was elsewhere.

PROOF I WAS SLEEPING!!!
re: worm dieth not
I remember coming across these scriptures last year or earlier and swearing I NEVER HEARD THIS, I think I even blamed that on Catholicism (back then).
Well, DRB:
Mark 9:43-50 DRB
(43) (9:42) And if thy hand scandalize thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life, maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into unquenchable fire:
(44) (9:43) Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not extinguished.
(45) (9:44) And if thy foot scandalize thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter lame into life everlasting than having two feet to be cast into the hell of unquenchable fire:
(46) (9:45) Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not extinguished.
(47) (9: 46) And if thy eye scandalize thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee with one eye to enter into the kingdom of God than having two eyes to be cast into the hell of fire:
(48) (9:47) Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not extinguished.
(49) (9:48 ) For every one shall be salted with fire: and every victim shall be salted with salt.
(50) (9:49) Salt is good. But if the salt become unsavoury, wherewith will you season it? Have salt in you: and have peace among you.

Temptations to Sin. (from NAB St. Joseph Edition)
9:42 "Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe (in me) to sin, it would be better for him if a great millstone were put around his neck and he were thrown into the sea.
9:43 If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life maimed than with two hands to go into Gehenna, * into the unquenchable fire.
9:44 *
9:45 And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life crippled than with two feet to be thrown into Gehenna.
9:47 And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out. Better for you to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye than with two eyes to be thrown into Gehenna,
9:48 where 'their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched.'
(I don't understand the numbering from NAB but I need to look up more on numbering, this was explained to me already)
