I'm not damning of all men in Templar armor. I'm just... wary of them. I've seen Templars drag children away from their families.
I'm not denying they have power. But I don't believe locking them away is a solution. If they were treated like people and given rights and freedoms then how likely would they be to become abominations? After all, look at countries such as Rivain, where they don't force mages to the Circle. And yet they don't have close to the same amount of abomination incidents as places like Ferelden or Kirkwall.
