Isn’t it marvelous? But the church is morally bankrupt. The church might also be financially bankrupt based upon the reports of incompetence and corruption inside the Vatican.
The latest report of sex abuse came to light just yesterday (March 12, 2013) in an Associated Press report.
“The Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Los Angeles will pay nearly $10 million to settle four cases alleging abuse by a now-defrocked priest who told Cardinal Roger Mahony nearly 30 years ago he had molested children, attorneys confirmed on Tuesday.
“The cases involving ex-priest Michael Baker span 26 years from 1974 to 2000. Two were set for trial next month. A judge had said attorneys for the plaintiffs could pursue punitive damages at trial.”
Why would any person who believes in God want to be part of an organization that protects its priests rather than protecting its flock?
