On the other hand, I have to admit that religions do seem to attract people with strange ideas and conduct, and I don't know exactly why. Every congregations seems to have at least a few whackos - maybe these people find a home in church because church people are conditioned to tolerate others, even if those people are a bit strange. The whackos may be a nuisance at times, but they're generally harmless unless they're allowed to take a position of leadership in the congregation - and then all hell can break loose and it can be well-nigh impossible to break the whacko's grip on the power they've gained. An abusive battleaxe in the Altar Society can wreak havoc throughous an entire congregation. If one of those whackos becomes Mother Superior, you can end up with a situation like happened often in Ireland, as depicted in the films The Magdalene Sisters and Evelyn, or the scandal with abusive priests in the U.S., Ireland, and elsewhere.

No comment - but only after using great restraint..*Smiles*
