Maybe you should go to the next Lac Ste Anne pilgrimage and tell the thousands of Indigenous Catholics gathered that they’re indoctrinated dupes living a sham. No doubt they’ll welcome a white man dispelling their ignorance.

It could be reasonably argued all Catholics(and most other religions) are indoctrinated dupes living a sham. No need to single out Indigenous peoples. People may not like to hear that, and it's looked down upon to say that, but sometimes the honest truth needs to be spoken. The essential tenants of Catholic faith are obviously and provably false, such as Adam being the first man.
