It is my humble opinion that the vows of Christian clergy went south with the death of Jesus, if not before. The same corruption occurred with the death of Muhammad when both factions of his family ripped the Qur'an in two, one of love and peace, and one not. But, isn't this the way it, almost always, plays out when the wealthy, leaders, and even family, die? There are always vultures waiting in the wings to pick at the carcass and forward their own agenda.
