I read a book a while ago that suggested that extremely benevolent , spiritual trial blazing , philanthropist ( is that the right word ?) type people often have a small very dark part of their life well hidden . A dark alter ego you might say . They often have , how can I put this ? They often abuse others . Catholic priests , Jimmy Saville to name two examples . Apparently in history this is not unusual .
Why would Godly charitable people do this ? Many evil or damaged people do not stoop this low so why do a minority of the righteous ? How many people guilty of this abomination do we idolise ? Is it an unavoidable price paid of being a " saint ? " If so why ? I ask this question in a moraly detacted sense otherwise I wouldn't dare ask it !
