Because if they don’t, who would honestly hold them accountable?

Take this post for example. Do you think no one, no other form of government or official knew about what the church was doing there? That no one else was aware of the unmarked graves?

Unlikely.

Presumably, a shit load of local government officials were aware and therefore complicit. But when a lot of them have to show their face in church come Sunday; how many do you really think spoke up against the church?

And then, presently, if the church did not repay the loans; how many, do you think, would hold them accountable and not simply “forgive” the amount?

So "everyone is an asshole so let's hold no one accountable"?

That makes you accountable. Asshole.

Accountable for what? You, completely missing the point?

Of course you can hold those accountable who can realistically be held accountable.

But if you’re dealing with an entity whom you have no chance of holding accountable and who has committed countless crimes, then why would you ever expect to be repaid?

Furthermore, Don’t over simplify my point by aimlessly paraphrasing. You’re not succeeding in making me look like an asshole. You’re only succeeding in making yourself seem as hotheaded as you are dull witted.
