You have to realize, the men (1st P & Q12) directing what truth gets out, etc. are doing what they think is best for the members and potential members on the whole. I tend to think I may agree with them if I were in their place. From their point ov view, why would you raise various convers about different episodes if it may hurt the tender faith of some or many members?

That is a completely indefensible position. As soon as you get in the business of "directing what truth gets out" you are no longer dealing in truth; you are dealing in obfuscation and propaganda. How arrogant is it for people who supposedly know the whole truth to decide which portions of that truth others should have access to? I realize at times you have to market the Church and you have to be concerned with public relations, but not at the expense of simple honesty.
