Much of what you say is true, Harry, but your hero, MLK was said to also be a womanizer who drank and smoke.  Fortunately,  he was not materialistic and was able to compartmentalize his life and remain true to his calling to uplift his people, always keeping his eye on the prize.  My kinda guy.

Preachers are human beings and they're going to do what other human beings do.

Once I realized that, I stopped expecting perfection or some divine aura from them.

Some are good, others are bad.

MLK was a good one DESPITE his smoking, drinking, and the accusations of him cheating on his wife because his GOOD deeds out weighs his bad deeds.

I don't look for perfection in any human being, I look to see if they were successful at helping more people than they harmed in judging (because unlike some people I actually DO judge)  whether they were "good" or "bad".
