What the hell is going on with the Catholic Church? The Pope Ain't the Pope. Seriously, if they clean house I'm going back to church.

The Catholic church has been polluted completely. Even if you take away the gateway to hell they call the Vatican. The doctrines are corrupt and will not lead to salvation.
Yes, and unfortunately the "protestant" church is headed that way now.
The protestant churches are, mostly, corporate churches now. The ecumenical movement (a RCC thing) exists to bring these churches back to the fold under a common religious banner. Even the Seventh Day Adventist church has been corrupted by the ecumenical movement.
The ecumenical movement is directly contrary to Christ's direction. We are commanded to come out of corruption and be separate.
Other churches have begun adopting certain aspects of Catholic doctrine. The big examples are the Trinity, Sunday worship (which most never left in the first place), advocacy for Sunday laws, the substitution of church tradition over Biblical law, celebacy in the priest hood (Paul specifically said priests should be married in 1 Timothy), belief that judgement comes in the moment of death (looking down from Heaven or roasting in Hell), etc.
The Seventh Day Adventist church accepted the Trinity doctrine back in 1980. They try to pretend it isn't the same as the Catholic doctrine and if you read the fine print, it isn't, but in a few decades it will be indistinguishable.
The Bible is pretty clear on the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. In the Gospel Christ says he will return to His apostles in Spirit and that He and His Father will be among them in Spirit. This is the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is Christ/God. It isn't a third being. The RCC teaches of a triune godhead which aligns with Babylonian, Egyptian, and Theban teaching, all of which have a sungod somewhere in their theology. In Babylonian, that's Tammuz. In Egyptian it is Amun-Ra (one step up from their trinity). In Theban it is Amun. What day did the Catholics "move the sanctity of the Sabbath" to? Sunday. Sunday was so-called because it is the day the Romans used to worship their sungod. What does Lucifer mean? Light-bringer.
Exekiel 8:13-16.
Even with all of those changes.... if the churches are growing their number by the day, and millions are being brought to Christ.... is there really such a need to rally against the ecumenical movement?
There are groups that are doing it the right way. I'd point you to take a look at the Association of Related Churches (ARC), and see how you jive with their doctrine. No offense, but you seem the type to find something wrong with it regardless.
I think the biggest problem Christianity has had in the last 50 years is too many people saying "No, THIS is the right way to worship"... when really, all that needs to be said is, "But if not for Jesus...."
