If anyone of the mods wants to, I think the Pharisees may count as Complete Monsters. The NT goes into detail about how they use their power and wealth to abuse and condemn the less fortunate while at the same time [[{{Hypocrites}} boasting about their fake superiority]]. They punish people for doing good things (when they rebuked Jesus for healing a man on the Sabbath), stone people to death. And not least of all, they subjected the [[TheMessiah the kindest being in the world]] to the cruelest, most demeaning method of execution they could get away with because he brought people hope and happiness. To go further into explanation of that last point, not only did they have Jesus tortured, humiliated, demonized and killed, they bullied Pilate into making complying with their whims and when they chose to set a [[CompleteMonster mass murderer and rapist]] free rather than [[TheMessiah Jesus]]. As if that weren\'t enough but they\'re even worse than Soddom and Gommorrah (who were a bunch of selfish, cruel, greedy bastards who raped and neglected the poor) because at least S&G would\'ve listened to Jesus. They\'ve left a legacy because when people criticize hypocritical religious nuts, they\'re usually called Pharisees. If this doesn\'t qualify them as iredeemable psychopaths/narcissists, then there\'s nothing that can.
