With all of your recent posts, you almost always use the qualifier child molesting with priest. An obsession you have there.In your Catholic pecking order a child molesting Priest is higher than the victims he molests. The child molesting priest has the "power" to consecrate the sacraments and to retain the sins of his victims. His victims are powerless.
You guys condemn egalitarianism as if, in the context of our relationship to God, it is a bad thing. No, the Catholic priesthood is all about power over the laity.

No, the Catholic priesthood is all about power over the laity.This kind of thinking, if you take it to its logical end, will lead to egalitarian thinking in class and politics, which is the central organizing principle of left-wing ideology. It's one continuum.

No, the Catholic priesthood is all about power over the laity. Was that true of the Apostolic office as well, that it was all about "power over the laity"?
