Mr Worf, the trouble is mostly in the upper hierarchy, who've tasted the
power and can't let go of it.

You'd think that members of the clergy would be above all of that, but the
last 20 years has proven that sentiment to be false.

To be honest, the church has had a pretty jaded past throughout its history.
I remember reading recently that the church put a hit out on the Medici
family in the 1500s because the church owed them too much money.

Knowing some of Holy Mother Church's inner workings... he done the deed.
