		Most academic historians of the past 30 years have ignored them, focusing on the marginalized and downtrodden and stressing social history rather than the grand political narrative.

		From the moment the scandals erupted in January of 2002, faithful Catholics were overcome with dismay, incomprehension and a terrible sadness as they heard successive reports of Catholic bishops tolerating priests guilty of preying upon youngsters.
