While you might think that is true, some people(especially the old ones) have their identities so entwined with Catholicism that nothing the church could do would cause them to stop identifying as a Catholic. For some families, Catholicism is as much a culture passed down from generation to generation as it is a religion.
What makes you think that they ever really face up to the crimes of the Catholic Church?
