Come on we've known that for a long time now. The looks the priestesses have given him as they block him makes it quite obvious, not to mention that the church is explicitly shown several times to only revere the other three while people serving the church have called him the Shield Demon. I believe they were also involved in the claims of the brainwashing shield on account of the fact that people were siding with the "bad guy". Might be a bit of a surprise that they'd go this far, but they've never been the good guys. Not to mention that, yes, a JRPG-style story with a benevolent church is like a zombie movie where there's a believable chance for a happy ending.
And Huh, please don't go talking about how organized religion is REALLY evil or nonsense like that, that's just asking for trouble.
