There will always be followers. There will always be leaders.

Just look at other religions. As stark and authoritarian as some can be, they have fanatics who follow them.

Christianity has never been a monolith however. As dark as some sects may become, others will lean towards the light.

I sadly don't have faith in people to choose the right path.
