In Castlevania it's summarized simply as, in that iteration of the story, that yes the Catholic church in all of them is indeed the "badguy" who typically starts shit with dracula. The Generic basics though is that the Monster hunting order was literally wiped out by dracula. The Belmonts, on the other hand, were family friends of dracula before he became dracula in the original and only killed dracula for killing belmont's bride to be.
In the reboots, dracula was a belmont who became a vampire after killing the lords of darkness and the family kept it a secret and kills vampires and monsters in a fictional world where they're labeled as heretics for acknowledging their existence.
Tl:dr - in all castlevania's the catholic church are backstabbing pricks
Like instances of them being a total sperg, and insulting the church directly when cautioned not assert their models as proven truth.
and the setting is "Advanced" medieval europe due to the scavenging and use of Dracula's advanced technology he gained through a mix of Occultism and advanced mathematics
only in the sense of Dracula's shit though
@KaiserDoom we're talking the netflix show
You could get away with quite a lot, as long as you didn't frame your theories as "this is how things are" and instead as "hey, here's an interesting idea, and I think it's consistent with observations"
Netflix show wise, its a blend of the original story and the reboots lore wise
except in this case, dracula goes on a rampage for his wife being directly killed by the church rather than satan.
Well
Almost same premise for the 2nd castlevania reboot
In the Netflix one he was never a friend nor a belmontand the church drove the belmonts out
_Especially_ considering that demon's speech to the bishop
That's old canon
Ik, I am saying they used a blend of the old and new canon for the netflix one
No they didnt lel
I cam imagine the Devil playing some part in having distantly affected the church in killing her
hell, some of the biggest criticisms of heliocentrism were actually valid mathematically. And it took later skeptics to finally gather the data and create the math necessary to explain the discrepancies.
They tossed that shit out
Kaiser what I just said wasn't in either canon
one sec
I love how miniature is just talking to no one
Critics weren't all just a bunch of dum dums, sometimes the ultimately correct revolutionary theories were just a little half baked.
Miniature is just being a tard
The point is though, is that in all the Castlevania's that have featured the church, the church has always been a dick to both dracula and the belmonts. Its not even for criticism of the church or anything. its just for pushing the story
where did all the other channels go?
Nowhere, you are just being a nig
I still see em
I still see them
okay, they're back now though, weird
You literally went full nig
The point is questioning whether that is actually a problem with some roots in anti-Catholicism/Progressivism
Kaiser we were talking Castlevania Netflix because the same crew are making this
I wanna see He-man
Personally, I find it within my willing suspension of disbelief, given the time and place
i said that earlier
I might've done that to the channels
