Opinion: The fall of Jean Vanier teaches us a vital lesson about reverence. Nobody is above criticism and question, and the more authority and influence, the more need to be open and answerable.
If it applies to employers, teachers, and politicians, it should apply more and not less to clergy and Christian leaders.
It applied to Jean Vanier in abundance, but he and his acolytes forgot that all too readily. The damage done is incalculable, to those 25 women and to so many other people who trusted and loved.
