"Not a good man left."
.
If it is any consolation, it has always gone on - before and after the Council - we just seem to know more about it today. Priests fall. They always have. Consider that monasteries were once considered to be hospitals for sinners - even penitentiaries - where men actually atoned for sin.
.
Remember that Christ told the disciples he saw Lucifer fall like lightning from the sky... And yet the Holy Spirit groans aloud:
.
I said in my alarm;
'no man can be trusted'
all have gone astray,
there is not a good man left -
there is no one who does good,
no, not even one.
.
