So what's trying to be said here? As in, what was censored?

It's a joke about Marisa's past.
In Phantasmagoria of Dim Dream, Marisa used a very feminine and rather silly sounding "u-fu-fu" laugh. Since this is so out of place with her other, more recent tomboyish behavior, it gets used to make fun of her a lot, sometimes being shown as if it was a stage that she went through, one she's embarrassed about now.

Much like her comments in The Grimoire of Marisa on Utsuho's 'Heaven and Hell Meltdown' spell card, which, in the original Japanese, sound very poetic and silly in a "poem written in the margin of your sixth-grade-notebook" kind of way, it's portrayed as a bit of "kuro rekishi," an embarrassing bit of her personal past she'd like everyone to forget.

Who the heck has been filling Utsuho's head with random embarrassing episodes from Marisa's past is a different question. I'd guess either Satori or Yuuka, but Yuuka doesn't strike me as the church-going type...

    SUPER late reply, but Satori's been shown outside of the church a few times before—it's likely that she came across Yuuka and just read the memories from her head.

    Also, churches and graveyards are pretty deeply connected, as are flowers and gravestones. It's not unlikely for her to go to the flower shop for that purpose, either.

    From what I understand what you mean, that in general Touhou sucks, I already know that the "cookie" thing exists and how cringey it is (it's like a poorly done lobotomy to the "franchise" if you ask me)

    Not Touhou that sucks, just its fanbase, which is typical of any large fandom. It's also not really a very fair judgement, since we're judging based on the fucked up minority. The unpleasant members stand out the most, and there's going to be more of those the larger the sample size, but the majority of most fandoms are actually perfectly fine and normal.

    Their point was that fans aren't better or worse depending on their country of origin. The Japanese fans have just as many controversies and bad apples as the western fans. You just don't hear about them because they happen in Japanese spaces, but if something happens in the English speaking side then of course you'll hear all about it.
