Actually there is a way for them to avoid hypocrisy.  It has to do with extreme vetting of the personnel you want to deliver your product.

A famous theologian, Thomas Merton, long ago wrote a book called the seven story mountain.  It was about his journey.

Prior to WW2, the Catholic Church was in overdrive.  They were expanding.  They were hiring.  The many men that entered were afraid - of who they were, the threat on the horizon in those times, and for their genuine survival.  Many were ill-prepared and maybe a lot were already scarred/unsuitable for being dispatched.  I am not being an apologist.

This is similar to a booming franchise whereby you take people who you train and whose objectives are either inconsistent with the foundational direction.  The franchise fails.  I was a professional store set up guy-I trained the owners, staff, in all aspects of running a complicated business.  Lots of ambition out there...and lots of failure due to lack of supervision. I was 18, now 47.
