text: Also "part of the story" are the thousands/millions of every-day, average, ordinary lay Catholics whose allegiance to and membership in the RCC have been destroyed, many beyond recovery.  We lost one of the foundational "truths" of our lives when the rock was turned over and the maggots exposed.  Cynicism, doubt, rebellion and disbelief in almost everything have displaced most of what we grew up holding as sacred.  Perhaps we would have lost the childlike veneer anyway as we edged into old age, but I doubt we would have been engulfed by bitterness as has happened when the evil of the aiders and abetters was exposed.  We are still waiting for many of those bishops and senior clerics to be held accountable.
