Understandable.
However, I cringe at the thought of the trauma they have set themselves up for when the harsh truths flood out undeniably.
Though some folks 'Denier' is in very robust form regardless of the emphatic undeniability of the evidence.
50000 in 32 sites, an average of over 1500 per site? If so, the mass graves need to be uncovered or some physical evidence shown. Even a LIDAR survey by drone would indicate such a pit. Allegation, even if correct, is one thing, but as they say it isn't what you think or even know, it is what you can prove.
The RCC is a pretty big operation, and I have little doubt there are some bad apples in that orchard. The question is one of how pervasive this sort of stuff is.
I can't help but think that nothing would serve the evil one better than the alienation of people from their beliefs by corrupting a few key persons. It seems the highest profile evangelists have similar problems with money, infidelity, and other disqualifiers, and I can't help but think that those spots of corruption are often a reason for people to discard the entire tablecloth of Christian Salvation.
The media (by their fruits shall ye know them), ever a corrupting influence, take great joy in pointing out those indiscretions great and small, and steering people away, not from the evil done by those who should have been shining examples of a holy life, but from the remaining sources of The Word and the guidance needed to find God.
If they had something that would not take them down, too, they'd gleefully use it.
