I've been wondering about posting a link to that article, trying to articulate the thoughts it causes swirling about in my head and I can't quite. Partly it's relief and a feeling of kinship that someone so revered can struggle but it's also heartbreak that she had to struggle on in darkness for so many years.
I don't know if you ever look at the christianity community, it can be a not very nice palce at times but there is a post discussing this article and I found it (and more to the point the comments) very thought-provoking. One of the regular posters there is really struggling with this new view of their hero and there are some great suggestions as to further reading on the subject of prominent christians who have experienced that disconnect between feelings and what they believe their actions should be.
