A very good point about child abuse. And yes, YDRC - I think that's covered in the second link in my OP, though I might be thinking of one of the non-BBC articles I saw while looking around.

I'm familiar with the apostolic-succession argument, I just can't really comment on it because it runs almost exactly counter to all of my Nonconformist ideas on spiritual authority and divine inspiration. Though I am tempted to ask fanwank-type questions about whether & how it remains unsullied by passing through some arguably corrupted and evil holders.
