You Catholics better stop giving money to your churches. I went to a church several years back, and they had a sign up telling people to donate so that the church can use the money for its defense. This %@*+ is just shameful. Straight up complicit. Every Catholic that I know completely ignores the crimes of their religion. Some I know, blame the victims and their lawyers for their "greediness."
goddamn despicable.

A newly disclosed document reveals that Vatican officials told the bishops of Ireland in 1997 that they had serious reservations about the bishops’ policy of mandatory reporting of priests suspected of child abuse to the police or civil authorities.

The document appears to contradict Vatican claims that church leaders in Rome never sought to control the actions of local bishops in abuse cases, and that the Roman Catholic Church did not impede criminal investigations of child abuse suspects.
Abuse victims in Ireland and the United States quickly proclaimed the document to be a “smoking gun
