The short story is in the context of the Spanish inquisition specifically, which was obviously against the teachings of Jesus. The bigger idea is that Jesus taught about freedom and non judgement on the personal level while the church teaches about authority and submitting. It's definitely a complicated thing, and the Catholic church is for sure very complicated as it's the largest organization in human history. I don't know much about the Catholic church personally, it just reminded me of the short story. Worth a read.
