I bathe my two cats regularly. Neither of my cats have died, exploded, murdered me, melted, or otherwise been harmed by bathing, so I see no problem with bathing a cat as long as it's carried out properly. I bathe them with a cat shampoo (never human shampoo or soap) and make sure I rinse thoroughly. I also have one of those pet hose attachment things for my shower - https://www.amazon.com/Rinse-Ace-Sprayer-Showerhead-Attachment/dp/B000633XBE - this has made bathing so, SO much easier and faster.
I bathe my 18-year-old every two weeks as she is an outdoors cat; the 9-month-old only gets a bath every month as she is full-indoors. My 18-year-old used to have problems with hairballs and I kept having to dose her with chemical hairball gels.... but once I started on the regular bathing, she's had maybe literally three hairball-horks in the last 6+ years.
My 18-year-old is a shorthair, but has extremely thick, soft fur, and as she gets older, she can't groom herself as well, so she's developed mats before. Regular baths helps this, as does regular brushing. I use several combs/brushes on my two, but the ones I have found to be the best are these:
https://www.amazon.com/KONG-ZoomGroom-Cat-Grooming-Brush/dp/B0002AR18M - the Kong Zoom Groom is god.
https://www.amazon.com/Pet-Republique-Dog-Flea-Comb/dp/B01MF7SBG2/ref=sr_1_4?s=pet-supplies&ie=UTF8&qid=1493098979&sr=1-4&keywords=cat+flea+comb - not for finding fleas, but EXCELLENT for brushing out loose hair.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00UUK6GW6/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 - even if your kitties don't have mats, a de-matter comb really helps pull out dead/loose/shedding fur.
You can also use a Furminator, but BE CAREFUL, they are POWERFUL. I have combed a bald spot on my old girl before. No more than a few strokes of the Furminator in any one spot on the cat - you can't always see immediately how much fur it's actually removing. Take it slow and literally do a visual check as you go along to make sure you aren't brushing them bald >_< The Furminator will remove normal, "non-shedding" fur as well as fur that's dead/about to be shed.
But yes, you can totally bathe a cat, it's perfectly safe and legit. You can also shave cats and they'll be perfectly fine, but I usually only see this done on longhairs such as Persians and Maine Coons who have a tendency to mat up badly. And of course, I'd never shave a cat of any fur length unless it was a full indoors kitty!
