This scandal is lethal to the Legion. While it reflects the same problem than animated the general scandal in the Church. The Legion has no promise or resisting the "gates of hell". It is instructive that Marciel's family was full of bishops who no doubt taught him the mendacity of the bella figura which prefers image over substance. Who knows what else they taught him. Overall I feel bad for the good members of the Legion who were duped by the masquerade of sanctity and then issued denial after denial claiming that false accusations follow in the wake of sanctity. Pity!
