This statistic is where the problem lies.
The priesthood, with its claims of moral superiority, should present a lower adherence of amoral behavior than the average man.
If the priests are truly in spiritual contact with the moral lawgiver, then they should not.... not one of them... they should not have any amoral behavior. They should all, with no exception, follow the morality code instilled by their highest boss.
However... we know very well that the reality is different from this ideal state.
Which automatically hints at a lack of actual contact between the priesthood and the ultimate lawgiver... most likely, I'd say, because no such lawgiver is within any spiritual neighborhood... but I'm sure you disagree.
