Actually the Douay-Rheims Bible is a very accurate translation of both the Hebrew and Greek texts. The "problem" from a non-Catholic perspective is the notes that teach Catholic traditions that are contrary to the text of Scripture.
Yes, but not to gain righteousness, nor to have sins removed, nor to worship some dead god or idol, nor to please a pastor or priest, but to worship in community with others who also believe and submit themselves to the true and living God.
Example of "on your deathbed" = one of the two thieves on the crosses with Jesus at His crucifixion. Based on the thief's confession of faith, Jesus said, "Today you will be with me in paradise." Not the sexually perverted idea of Islamic paradise, but the spiritual abode of God.
