I was referring to the bolded.
Though what you're saying also doesn't make any sense.
You're basically saying "Oh it isn't 'The Church' doing anything to help, it's the people of the Church, through the Church. But not The Church!" Lol. You talk about The Church as if it's some sort of separate entity in and of itself. "The Church" is all of us. If myself along with a group of my fellow parishioners raised money at one of our Church events and then used it to go to Guatemala to build homes for the poor people there, it would be considered "Catholic Charity" and "help from the Catholic Church." We literally are the Church.

"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
