Beyond the internal damage to individuals there is also the danger to the public good whenever one of these is entrusted with public office. The most blatant example was secretary of the interior, James Watts, under Reagan.

Abdication of self reminds me of Buddhism, and it seems like a path to happiness, social harmony, etc.

I think a lot depends on the form of Christianity and the personality of the Christian IMO.
