I never said that the ecclesiastical brethren were not corrupt - you only have to read a bit of Chaucer to see how bad they were. I am saying that the everyday Christian, of today or historically, does not try to crush other people merely because they have a different faith. Those in power are nearly always corrupt - those who follow the faith with all their hearts are not, but they can be lead astray.
