Nobody knows what is in the head of another person, yet I would say that they are wicked beyond our imagination, they know they are wicked and they choose to be wicked. If I look at their faces on the news than it's hard to imagine, yet I do believe this is the case. They think they ARE GOD, and they play god over those they deceive, abuse and exhort. They know exactly what they are doing.
Many catholics on the benches might not be aware of the wickedness in their organisation, but Im sure the leader of the institute MUST know.
