  Your comments are not 'factual', they are based on your 'opinion' of what it means to be a feminist and what beliefs one must adhere to to be deemed a feminist.  It is possible to challenge most of what you say simply by adopting a definition of feminism that contradicts yours.  For example, many modern feminists employ a Marxist based framework in their feminist theory, which does mean that capitalist inclined women would not be very welcome.  It is just as easy to challenge your arguments concerning Catholics and patriarchy simply by contending the definition and meaning of terms such as feminism, patriarchy etc.  Feminism is a contentious term and their is no universally agreed definition of the term, nor is their agreement on the values a feminist must adhere to.  As such, where feminism falls in the realm of social science, it is nothing more than a contentious theory predicated on ideology, not fact.
