I think there is some truth to the idea that people who have greatly sinned in the past can better understand it and help others from sinning.

Some of the best preachers and counselors I met fit this mold.

This is a very common Christian heresy. Keeps popping up for the last couple of millenia.

His surname can be translated into English as Debaucheeson. This adds something to his story when it’s told in Russian.
