Dante felt that to be a true Christian, one should be an outlaw of the existing Catholic Church. Why was that?

Because one should not always believe in everything that the Church says. The Catholic Church, as an institution, is a result of a lot of history of violence and corruption in that even most of it's doctrines were not created out of plain faith but to serve the greedy designs of its leaders. A true Christian believes in the image of a God that the Church did not impose, a God that he finds through meditation and personal contemplation, a God that does not need a Church to administer one's faith--and the Catholic Church won't like those things from their followers.
