I am a practicing Catholic (born and raised that way) and what you say here is pretty accurate. I'll admit my mind tells me a lot of the teachings of the church are not provable and I have trouble at times "believing". My logical, scientific mind tells me it's all a farce. But then the faith stuff enters.....and you look around at the physical world and universe and ask yourself "how is all of this just coincidence?". So, your point is valid and well taken. Each person's beliefs are much harder to analyze and prove. It's a fascinating discussion when you drill down.
