Catholicism and the history of Catholicism are two very different things.
even the Catholic church has changed a lot since it was a part of the
Roman empire. It has even changed since last year and will do so
indefinitely.

Catholicism today is not it's history and it is not the bible.
If a Martian had only a copy of the bible, he would learn very little about
Catholicism and would likely guess a great many false things about it.

The same is true should a Martian try to learn about modern Islam from
the Quran or today's Judaism from the Torah.

A religion is the belief system/values held by the body of it's practitioners.
