Cardinal Timothy Dolan moved $57 million of Church Money...
...so that survivors of sexual assault could not be granted it by the courts:
[quote]Tragic as the sexual abuse scandal in the Roman Catholic Church has been, it is shocking to discover that Cardinal Timothy Dolan, while archbishop of Milwaukee, moved $57 million off the archdiocesan books into a cemetery trust fund six years ago in order to protect the money from damage suits by victims of abuse by priests.
Cardinal Dolan, now the archbishop of New York, has denied shielding the funds as an “old and discredited” allegation and “malarkey.” But newly released court documents make it clear that he sought and received fast approval from the Vatican to transfer the money just as the Wisconsin Supreme Court was about to open the door to damage suits by victims -blam!- and abused as children by Roman Catholic clergy.
“I foresee an improved protection of these funds from any legal claim and liability,” Cardinal Dolan wrote rather cynically in his 2007 letter to the Vatican. The letter was released by the Milwaukee Archdiocese as part of a bankruptcy court fight with lawyers in 575 cases of damage claims. The archdiocese filed for bankruptcy protection in 2011. The law bars a debtor from transferring funds in a way that protects one class of creditors over another.[/quote]
This isn't really even shocking anymore.

Roman Catholic Church is as corrupt as ever. It's no shock that there was a Schism several hundreds of years ago. I don't blame the Protestants. Fix your shit you corrupt bastards.

Can't wait to see how butthurt fedorafags are when the Church is restored to its former glory.

Why is it the Catholic Priest that molest children? Is it because they can't get married and they need to relieve some sexual pleasure? I never really understood that. If so, they need to be allowed to be married so we can avoid this crap, people need to get laid.
