The Christian churches probably have trillions in wealth — if you include all the illegal/unreported funds they hold (offshore accounts, etc) — so they have both the reason and finances to fund lobbyists and bot armies to suppress negative news.
Germany isn’t even secular. “The law” doesn’t apply to the church, there’s a separate set of laws for them. And the taxpayer funds the church because of some agreement from 200 years ago
