There is certainly an Inquisition, but like the Spanish Inquisition, it only operates in certain countries. In some countries monsters are even kept as pets, with an Inquisition this would be unthinkable.

And people do not turn away from their religion that fast. In Europe, it took a selfish king or reformer to do so. And Luther could achieve this only because he had support from the rich cities, which demanded more say.

You must also remember that people in the Middle Ages could not just leave. Many have not left their small village for a lifetime. All the information that these people had about the world, they got from the church and some travelers. What the church says is right, because there is only the church and it is the only one that protects us from the evil monsters. Even if that is not true, it is the truth for most people and anyone who speaks against it is a heretic.

And as for rebellions, look at the peasant revolts. You can not fight a trained military with ordinary people.
