Two questions arise then.
Why are you defending the Catholic church, then?
And what is your purpose here?
Also, you probably ought to familiarize yourself with the RF guidelines posted on the Religion Mod’s homepage.

Good questions.
I am defending the Catholic Church because judging actions of the Catholic Church 400 years ago by the standards of today is nothing more than blood libel. It is what leftists try to do to Americans over slavery after 750,000 of us died fighting a war to end it 160 years ago. I am not a Catholic but I am a Christian and an American and I believe in the divine fusion of the two!
My purpose here is to fight crypto leftists and their evil ideology and tactics wherever I find them.
Why are you on FR? Couldn't get a date on DU?
