If I may - when there is an egregore, and the egregore develops a taint, it is not *just* a question any longer of whether *some* of its practitioners are honest, caring, poorly-paid (as it were) ministers, or researchers, or whatever.

Sometimes a practitioner needs to consider their own relationship to the egregore as a whole - whether to keep feeding it, or attempt to reform it from within, or leave and take their energy into a different egregore, or something I have not thought of... but, regardless, an egregore can become a "being" in its own right, and may simply *use* the honest, caring, poorly paid exemplaries as camouflage to hide the dishonest, brutal, profiteering parts from scrutiny.
