Question to our glorious leader: what role does the Catholic church, or any other religious organization have to due with the plot, the vamps, or our organization? And how in favor of you of firearms over kungfu stuffs?

The Eternal keep a close eye on the Catholics due to the Inquisition and previous history, but they don't fear it. The Vigil is not closely aligned with it, though it's possible they might recruit a person or two from Catholic institutions but they steer clear of leadership and any overt contact that might arouse suspicion. There is a history of manipulating the Catholic Church through thralls...the vampires have thralls in a lot of key points of influence. Not necessarily politicians themselves, but the bureaucrats and people who can make things happen and keep things under wraps.

Firearms and hand to hand combat each have their place here.
