In the closed groups organized by them, especially the doctrinal ones, we will monitor a dangerous fact of corruption. In it, the tool is able to oblige respect for the higher orders, the centralization of work and its patriarchal nature, and the projection of the data of the sanctity of religion on the personalities in control of matters and their actions and behavior. I say that you will be able to impose pathological desires and a corrupt behavioral system with all its data. We have witnessed this in synagogues and churches, Catholic or otherwise, in temples and mosques, and among members of Buddhist and/or Hindu groups and other similar groups.
It is well known that all societies and their groups have environments with an identity or a character that distinguishes each of them. Hence, various approaches emerged, sometimes different and conflicting, according to the background of their choices. Democracy has always found a growing desire to choose a humane solution and alternative in order to create transparency and monitor errors and shortcomings with a view to addressing them and moving forward. However, humanity faced structural breaches from (small groups) that adopted a closed, strict organization in the rules and mechanisms of life.
Here, there were opportunities for corruption that employed the nature of its mechanisms to exploit these groups and societies. Sometimes by emphasizing the centrality of the organization and its absolute submission to the revered leader, and at other times by the illusion of sanctity and the projections of false religiosity in the various religious and sectarian groups and the authority of reference elements in them.. Those deviant organizations can appear in any ideological environment without exception.
Perhaps the examples of collecting money from millions of poor people by fabricating imaginary shrines that have miraculous capabilities by exploiting certain environments prompted the proliferation of elements who wear attires and cloaks of invisibility, so we witnessed sexual assaults targeting their victims such as children, women and all vulnerable groups in the midst of that environment without supervision or accountability with the background of taking refuge in the alleged religious sanctuary and its spiritual and the psychological aspects with all the terror and panic it raises to force the extortion of the victims. Likewise, the imposition of customs, traditions, and general societal acceptance, which obliges the victims to remain silent about what is committed against them, beyond the issue of feeling shame!
Forms of pleasure, and all forms of financial, sexual, administrative and political corruption are some of the traits of the corrupt and their methods. The catastrophe that crudely expanded the spread of corruption through the rule of a kryptocratic class cloaked in false religion and blinded it, as we have just indicated. This has passed and continues to pass the most dangerous forms of vandalism and corruption in societies that have been intellectually alienated and stuffed with the logic of myth and deception to suffer from ignorance and backwardness, and then the aggravation of what we refer to as many models, including, for example, an Iraqi model that is ideal for such corruption crimes, the rate of which has reached the level of placing the country in the top ten most corrupt countries!
Let us begin projects to organize anti-corruption campaigns and it’s environments, in order to reach the means of standing in the way of the cause of deviations and distortions that is not in the interest of people and their beliefs and aspirations to build a civil society that is completely free from the effects of these tragedies, once and for all.
