LINK Trump Pardons GOP Rep. Duncan Hunter, Who Covered Up Campaign Fraud with Faith | Hemant Mehta | Friendly Atheist | Patheos
Republicans and war criminals last night, there was one to former GOP Rep. Duncan Hunter that deserves some attention on this site because of how religion provided cover for his crimes.
Both Hunter and his wife were found guilty of using campaign funds worth up to $250,000 to pay for personal expenses (vacations, private school for their kids, dinners, etc.), then lying about it to government officials.

"Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely."
Lord John Acton
I tend to agree with he point of view that the 'great experiment' of democracy known as the United States of America, as framed by the Constitution, could only have occurred during a brief period in history--the age of Neo-classicism. The founders understood the dangers of placing too much power in one institution, let alone, one individual.
Can a church or religion be the victim of abuse or a crime even? Yes, but they had it coming to them.
