There is a scene in which he was shown to be a veteran cleric and a gun kata instructor for other clerics. And honestly, seeing how the original Father was secretly dismissed, I think he was the one to first free himself from Prosium and leading a revolt that ended in Father's death. Unlike Preston however, without Prosium he couldn't resist your average joe human temptations. He got drunk with power and possibilities and simply took over, kept things the way they were. Preston was different. He had a real grudge against the system. He wanted freedom and feelings for more than just himself.

Hugely underrated film. One of Bale's best.

The only reason this movie didn't follow the Matrix's lead to legendary status was the "Trenchcoat Mafia" craze and the beginning of the school shooting culture that we find ourselves unfortunately desensitized to today. Equilibrium was and is a masterpiece that suffered from bad timing, but at least we still got to learn that Christian Bale is a master of his craft through his perseverance of amazing performances throughout his career!

Now that it is gone, it gives the world a chance to reach a decent government and stop new bad governments. It's also damn near impossible to beat this kind of government in any other way. Systematic change is out of question, and the fact that it only has one head is its biggest weakness. Without that, it's damn near impossible to break the government. The only other option they really had was to convert that guy into being good, but that's still absurdly hard. This was the best outcome they had.
