Touchy, touchy. I'm not saying that most priests are corrupt, merely that the priesthood offers many opportunities for corruption. Charities work like that. I think you've overlooked the bit where I wrote "religious *or* greedy". Like it or not, not everyone is motivated by idealism, and enterprises like churches, mosques, temples as well as non-religious non-profits offer plenty of opportunities for diverting funds towards personal use. And that's all I have to say on this subject.
Sloppy, unsophisticated.
I just don't like the flabby ignorance and adolescent pomposity you're throwing around. If you knew priests, you'd know that greed isn't a major hazard in that profession. There's laziness and complacency. There's moral cowardice. There's anger and discouragement. Some of them like fancy furnishings or meals a bit too much. A very few of thema smaller proportion than the general population, or than school teachersfall down in the sexual morality department. I've heard of a couple of cases of spectacular greed, by priest-con-men who preyed on rich ladies. But as a rule, there's very little money flying around in a parish, and it's watched very carefully. Compared to the financial or real estate business, it doesn't attract folks who are ambitious about greed.
If you threw around ill-informed generalizations about soldiers, knowledgeable FReepers would be down your throat in seconds. Stick to what you know. It's the least you can do for millions of people like warriors, priests, and mothers, whose job description requires them to be self-sacrificing and heroic when nobody is watching.
