Hes not a propagandist. He writes stories and these stories contains bad and good versus each other. In rare occasions that bad thing (the Shop in Firestarter) has been an institution. Not uncommon among authors. His heroes are people. Sometimes they work inside an institution (like Paul in The Green Mile). He was boss over the death row. He was unconmfortable about sending an innocent man to die but he didn't quit the institution and didn't stop the execution but was still the good guy. Was that book pro-institution in your view? Or against (because the man was innocent)? Paul was all for the system and death penalty for the scumbags. He didn't put the institution in question. There is your example.

He seems to live Catholic priests and all things Catholic,too. He is not one, though.

I remember the kids in IT discussing religion at one point comparing their different must and mustn't do. The conclusion that all seven agreed in was that religion was pretty weird.

Piper Libby in Under the Dome was a good character. He showed what true Christians are like.
