HI
They have insurance because it was required by the insurance company. Maybe there is a deductable who knows.
Why do you assume that the Priest hood are the only religous group that molested boys. It is not so.International Church Named in Sexual Assault Lawsuit, 04/23/01 in the 12th judicial district of Angelina County, Lufkin Texas. Defendants in this case are e)United Pentecostal Church International (UPCI), A string of lawsuits accuses Jehovah Witnesses of repeatedly covering up cases of child molestation. The plaintiffs say that not only were they sexually abused by church elders, but that other church officials knew about the abuse and refused to take the necessary steps to report it, instead allowing sexual predators to retain positions of power in the congregation. The alleged abuses span 27 years, from 1970 to 1997. Southern Baptist Child Molestation Scandal Growing,
This is not only going on the Catholic church my friend. It is a very sad abuse that is wide spread and knows no bound of one religion. It is very sad the abuse of power that many use as a way to hurt our children.
I will say that the catholic church is the only one after it was called to they eyes of the leaders of the church. That emplimented child protection laws that are even more strict then the states them self. They are the only religion that has done something more then icnore it. The once that commit such a hanis act are striped of their role. The fact of the matter is....
TONS of church scandals that the media COULD (and probably SHOULD) report but choose not to because they are afraid of offending church people. Look, it took years and years of lawsuits and people coming forward before the Catholic priest scandal was fully reported, for instance, and back then you had a whole bunch of people claiming that it was just a plot to defame and destroy the church too. But how can we keep seeing stuff like this and claim that there is no devil? That there are no evil spirits? That sin is not real? That the lake of fire and eternal judgment are not real? How can a Christian see this and not be motivated to take a strong spiritual warfare stand against the enemy when the enemy is doing stuff like this? Oh, you folks will get all angry and ready to fight when made up nonsense like “the war on Christmas” and “The Da Vinci Code” and “The Last Temptation of Christ” culture/politics “wars” are manufactured and made merchandise of, but when REAL BATTLES LIKE THIS arise, that is when the real warriors for Christ stand and fight, and the cowards scurry under their beds and cut off their night lights. I entreat you to join the real warriors for Christ in battle on this and on many other vital issues today!http://healtheland.wordpress.com/2007/02/22/southern-baptist-child-molestation-scandal-growing/

I think if we are going to be worried about the power a church has because of it's money then we should pay closer attention to the Mormon church.
I think it is funny we condemn the Catholic church for paying out to the families who were victimized, but we don't even give a thought when the family chooses to settle.
(Of course it is wrong. I don't want people to assume I think it's okay to molest children.)

What is a few hundred thousand pedophile priests, given how difficult it is to find people who are willing to live out completely unnatural lives in order to pretend to be superior to everyone else.

Wow, can you imagine knowing (or even thinking for 1sec) that you were contributing to that defense?
I feel bad for the Catholic's today in a way.
Lord forgive them for they know not what they do.....
But the Lord loves a cheerful giver so maybe that is
all that matters to the Lord and it's those that lead them
that are responsible.... and "judged by the Lord".
Still.... can't help but think about that I guess..... I bet they do.

You're right: I read that exact same thing with the exact same dollar figures.
They are only kidding themselves. And don't think I am just being mean: I was brought up Catholic. Truth is truth, no matter
how much it has to cut both ways.

For the same reason I like to imagine my tax dollars going towards a Predator UAV (unmanned airplane) or a Marine's salary instead of a NEA grant for someone who poops in a can and calls it art.
It makes us feel better.

closer attention to the Mormon church? why? what are they doing?
And yes the Catholics don´t see that their money is been used to pay for criminal acts,the same with evangelicals and Ted Haggard is like using it to buy drugs.
