wat if, the general public found out about the Secret of the Eva and how it makes the ATF, and that they're all clones of Adam (Lilith for unit 01).
most people in Nerv, themselves, dont even know about it.

would that create a problem for Nerv?

That question sounds awfully rhetorical to me.

sometimes, the only stupid question is the one created out of boredom to fill a void,

but seriously, I'm sure most people would be like "shit! thats crazy" but if it saves them, the I'm sure they wouldn't protest.

Alternatively, people could go the route of the military and blame Nerv for the Angels coming in the first place. (Which is half-true.)

Would the Evas save them anymore after such a disclosure? Would anyone want to pilot an enslaved God-human with the soul of their mother? I seriously doubt it!

Secret of the Evangelions: Yui has a penis.
He was warrior and mystic, ogre and saint, the fox and the innocent, chivalrous, ruthless, less than a god, more than a man. There is no measuring Muad'Dib's motives by ordinary standards. In the moment of his triumph, he saw the death prepared for him, yet he accepted the treachery. Can you say he did this out of a sense of justice? Whose justice, then? Remember, we speak now of the Muad'Dib who ordered battle drums made from his enemies' skins, the Muad'Dib who denied the conventions of his ducal past with a wave of the hand, saying merely: "I am the Kwisatz Haderach. That is reason enough."

Would factions ethically opposed to sentient entities -- humans even -- being treated in such a way develop?

Would mainstream cults emerge to worship them? (And the Apostles, and the Seeds, or that Matter? ;) )

Would anyone want to pilot an enslaved God-human with the soul of their mother? I seriously doubt it!

A "cod piece" is something used to cover and protect the groinal region. Typically on men, for whom that region is somewhat more... "vulnerable".

A cod-piece covers the cods as might be expected.

The United Nations and the public in general clamps down on NERV. However, strings are pulled and the Eva project continues as it is (but with expansions closely monitored), and several pardons are made because without the Evas Earth is still screwed. However, unless the U.N. is canny enough (and I doubt they are, they let Japan pretty much take the lead in saving the world without giving a second thought to how much power and resources they're putting in the hands of one group of people), SEELE will continue their machinations.

Though if you meant by "the secret of the Evangelions" included "everything we as people who watched the show know", then SEELE is screwed. They're just a group of old, albeit rich and powerful, men.

And hopefully someone will dose the poor Eva pilots with massive amounts of therapy, antidepressants, and spoiling when their mission's over.

Exactly. If everything went public, they'll be perceived as poor sweet heroes to the media, and groupies for everybody.

Unless of course some people from the UN deciede to kill off the old men first. Who? I don't know, but this would have to happen first to keep this clamp down from happening.

That happened in a fanfic I read once. :o I forget the title of it, though. Buuut that's a little offtopic. I'll let you guys get back to your discussion.
