Thoughts on organized religion, ecclesiastical leadership and abuse

The further I move away from organized religion and ecclesiastical leadership, the more I am seeing that a consistent theme among such leaders is an urgent desire to "fix" what they perceive to be wrong with themselves.

Just as with the constant drone of conservative, anti-gay leaders coming out of the closet and braying for forgiveness, these committed self-healers find themselves in positions of authority and without the tools to actually teach what they preach.  Conceptual knowledge and a good schtick is still a horrible disservice to those who look to these frauds as leaders.

Just as with the ardent anti-homo homos, these "healers" tend to lash out and further injure those who are in the most injury prone state.

What can be done about it?  Nothing.  People should just keep their eyes more open than they tend to do, I guess.
