Yes, of course! there are actually two tradgedies that have come out of this scandal within Christ's Church. First, many people have been harmed by abusive priests. The second tradgedy is that there are many innocent priests who have been accused and the Church will not allow them to defend themselves.

Donations to the Church are made freely.
If I didn't like the way my Church was using my money, I'd say something.
I haven't yet.

How else should they pay for them?
How does every other organization (religious and non) with the same problem do it? That's how churches make money.
