Am I right X?
I think his back ground is more complex than that. He doth both protest too much and try too hard. I think he is a product of a traditional culture with a long history from which he feels alienated. The culture of his birth is likely widespread, domineering and uses its long history and numerous sages as means of asserting its domination. But the culture is also socially fragmented.
The social fragmentation gave him a deep seated inferior complex but also allowed him to immerse himself in some alternative introduced from outside, Roman Catholicism appeals to him because he imagine it to be vehicle to rid himself of the inferiority of the culture and become one of the people who is not inferior. The use of its own long history and sages as a tool of self assertion by that culture finds echos in his quoting of saints, popes, and what happened in RCC history on some date centuries ago.
