"Let me quote item 11. from my list again, the liberal view:"

Like virtually all the items on the list, this one is also a straw man. And, oddly enough, labeled '10'...

I suppose you take some comfort in exaggerating the positions of the ones you feel are you opponents and then chortling about how ridiculous they are. Even though it is of your own creation. Seems sort of silly, but what the heck.

"churches back then needed such decoration to function and somebody with the skills required had to produce that."

Crap, Taro. You've seen at least some of the art the Catholic Church possesses. It goes well beyond mere decoration. And it isn't just the Catholic Church, but they are the largest. There is a reason why the Calvinists, despite be dour and not a lot of fun, made so many inroads. It wasn't required, they just had the power and the money.
