I know it's naive of me, but I when Iearn that the Bishop who has just been arrested on charges of child sex-abuse was once described as "one of the wisest and most godly men in the Christian Church" I find myself pitched into a state of cognitive dissonance.

Because there's a part of me that thinks that wisdom and godliness are not qualities that can co-exist with the abuse of power for sexual gratification.
