That's basically how I take it. I'm a Tolkien nerd cause I like mythology. I'm generally super not into the fantasy genre so to speak. And since I don't believe in it, catholicism is also a mythology and it's interesting enough to check out. I literally thought people took god as seriously as Santa Claus or the tooth fairy until I was like...6. Until you get to my great grandparents my family are atheists, so I'm coming at all this from a pretty outside perspective as well.
catholicism did have some interesting worldbuilding for a christian religion
