atheists: why dont you agree that catholicism can actually make people better informed?

[Luke]

i think that devout catholics are less likely to have the viewpoint decided by the media. for example catholics are less likely to believe the nonsense peddled by the likes of rupert murdoch who only want an end to social welfare and to turn everybody into selfish, uncaring and materialistic excuses for humans. where i live in britain people believe what papers like the sun and daily mail tell them and they think their beliefs are justified even though they may well stink, if these people were catholics they would surely know that they could not justify what is written by those papers and that the main thing they want is a dismantling of the welfare state, something that the catholic church is clearly against. it has been proven that catholics are more likely to vote for compassionate and left wing parties and condemn judgemental right wing parties which are the preserve of evangelical protestants and libertarians.
