We can both accept, I would hope, that your religion makes implications and statements regarding the reasons that I, for example, might do something......that are completely divorced from the reasons that I would give you. Further, that you, personally, hold such opinions (as do I about your church, you, and any other tom dick or harry) as well.
This is not true.

My religion is about faith, morals, and traditions. It is not about trying to decipher and make claims regarding people's motives for doing things. That's what they do in psychology departments, not Catholic mass lol.
I appreciate your humor and lighter take on things, btw. I never realized you were just being funny, but now that I know, I'm kinda liking it.
"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."
