Think about it, when this kind happened, who's making a profit out of it?

how many other people, who were told they must believe in something perfect, have been damaged by the truth?
I would suspect very many. I was temporarily damaged, now I resent the fact I was put through this. Why put people through this trauma? It makes no sense. To me, it is the same thing as insisting the shroud of Turin is real, and then someone reads an article that proves it was a painting. Totally unnecessary.
To perhaps paraphrase Nell’s point: the Spirit is Holy, not the text.
