So, that Golem is definitely people, but I get the feeling it was specifically children from the orphanage.

A golem that's probably powered by the souls of tortured orphans.
Why is he calling her adhering to their rules as "whitewashing"? If anything, he is the one blaspheming by attackign the slave owners for doing what they wish to with their own slaves.
Debatable whether they are evil, but what she is "realizing" is definitely not that as the teachings are what she follows. The ones that contradict her valueframe is the higher-ups, and she is realizing that her organization is corrupt and are betraying her goddess.
I were wondering why mc just stood there and let him keep on escalating things, instead of striking him down. mc had no qualms attacking his subordinates after all.

Nah, it's pretty clear-cut to me that any cult that uses fuckin' slavery as a "Blessing" that "frees people from the burden of having choices" is inherently evil. While I hate him, I agree that the Sister is just whitewashing/sugarcoating their teachings.

See that? That is how powerful a doctrine can be.
So if you have kids, indoctrinate them with good teaching, it will make them discern between right and wrong.

The reason it (the teachings, not the actions) is debatable is because they were all about letting ppl volunteer (not voluntold) to become it (Or at least that is what my memory says she said, but it's been months since those couple hours ago, so I might misremember). And there are many ideologies that value freedom, free will and choice above all else. Personally I agree it's a detestable religion since ppl can get indoctrinated (and seem to be even in the manga), but I'm not murican, so it would make sense for me to dislike slavery (yes, that is a joke playing at how obviously non-innocent the old world was too, by pretending ignorance of that - since internet rarely gets jokes without them being explained
).And she isn't whitewashing when she is clear that she thinks humans should be objects and owners should be respected, denouncing them for attacking the owners. The religion really did say something like that iirc, so the guy is the one acting outside the religion's teachings. To whitewash, you have to make things appear better, but since her only issue with that imminent slave-massacre is that a slave-owner was physically assaulted I don't think she appears in any better light whatsoever.

- Kinda the point. He's just pushing his own narrative onto other people. He doesn't actually care about whether or not this was the will of any of the actual owners. He's a sadistic, selfish, arrogant prick who's trying to enforce a status quo. Anyone in opposition to his standard, to him, is in the wrong and blaspheming against their "goddess". Sounds like some other things we know of in real life, no?
- I might guess, this is typical of modern Japanese values or ideals. Attempt to find a relatively peaceful solution first. End of the day, mc is like most modern terran humans, who are hesitant, arguably squeamish, to inflict violence on a grand scale for real, which is not an exclusive trait of medern Japanese civilians. The subordinates were supposedly non-living armors following orders of their mage, so he had no qualms about destroying them. The mage was the actual person attacking, and I assume from their display that she was just knocked out, not killed. In the end, mc got angry and frustrated, so we'll likely see even more of his androids wreaking havoc. In that sense, the escalation was a necessary plot point to justify starting a fight. That, and I suppose to attempt to not endanger the civilian populace as much as possible, including the slave owners of that city. They're all mixed in and pretty much starting a riot, and the androids are still effectively weapons of mass destruction in that world. Once bullets fly, they don't care what's in their way.

It's only fine if the isekai protagonist is engaged in it, obviously.

The ones teaching need to be aware of it too and not be shitty people, or they'll just teach more of the same.

you really expect someone who's not the mc from another world to be good with the slaves?

It really is refreshing to see a protag that doesn't put up with fucking slavery just so he can have waifus. Although I do feel like a lot of slavery depictions lately are more "criminal only slaves" focused, but that systems broken in modern times so it's not like it's really any better.

Thanks for the chapter 👍🏼
Even if there are, those are in the minority like that old man who was being slapped by the knight.
