"Cursed", the church as the enemy

[Belacqua]

Now I see your confusion.

In the show, the church is doing what it does best. It is killing the pagans for being against what it perceives as its truth, which is just its hate disguised under a religious cause. This historical and accurate part has simply been incorporated into a fictional show.

Like all prejudiced people, you pick and choose the evidence to support your prejudices. Even if it's obviously fiction. 

Here is a book which could help you improve your understanding.

It's safe for you because it's written by an atheist.
