Actually ive been doing plenty of "homework" and your attitude confirm what ive been saying in the beginning about the problem of catholics.
Basically they are all into their own brand of occultism, with immaculate conception, walking and talking lizzard, heaven and hell, angels and demons and other immaterial entities acting in the world, even the pope doing exorcism now lol
The bible is all about occultism, and they are so entrenched into their faith that the reality of a belief or other doesnt even matter, hence all the confusion with science, revelation vs delusional that is rampant into this catholic world , full of myth and occult belief that they consider perfectly normal as the church say so in the dogma, and anything out of this occult dogma is satanic witchcraft. But there is no objective difference between catholic belief and practice and what they consider being witchcraft.
Even considering that pagan cult like let says mayas or incas that have been exterminated as pagan 500 years before there was anything like wicca ever created show this deep blind entrenchment into a dogma without having much clue of the nature of the occult reality that they are talking about.
And there is no need to stick to a church dogma to have discipline into doing things, either in sport, programming, all achievement require some form of discipline.
Its even always ironical to portray the catholic religion as the most hated and out of the mass, which its the most accepted religion in the world, ruling over whole kingdom with totalitarian monarchy as the only belief system allowed for all the millions people under their ruling, but of course they have to play the poor persecuted martyrs victim to fit more into their fantasy lol
