a few things:
1 - Priests as pedophiles IS more egregious than Joe Pervert down the street because a) they are supposed to be the living example of God's goodness (or whatever) and b) they are in a position where their congregation trusts them implicitly, meaning the pedophilia (or any other crimes) not only break the law, but break the bond within a church
2 - Look at any "super power" type of country/civilization and you will see that historically, they don't last forever. Pan seems puzzled that this country is starting to fall apart, but seems oblivious to the historical precedent of other super powers (Rome, the USSR, etc.)
3 - The OP seems more relevant to the Philosophy forum than Politics.
