Re: Penticostal Factor
Sex abuse by Roman Catholic priests has cost the U.S. church at least $2.3 billion since 1950. Some of the largest known payouts to victims since the crisis erupted in 2002 include:
_ Archdiocese of Los Angeles, 2007, agrees to pay $660 million to about 500 people.
_ Diocese of San Diego, 2007, agrees to pay $198 million to 144 people.
_ Diocese of Orange, Calif., 2004, $100 million for 90 abuse claims.
_ Diocese of Covington, Ky., 2006, up to $84 million for more than 350 people.
_ Archdiocese of Boston, 2003, $84 million for 552 claims.
_ Diocese of Oakland, Calif., 2005, $56 million to 56 people.
_ Archdiocese of Portland, Ore., 2007, agrees to pay about $52 million to 175 victims to emerge from bankruptcy protection; sets aside another $20 million for any future claims.
_ Diocese of Spokane, Wash., 2007, agrees to pay $48 million for about 150 claims to emerge from bankruptcy protection.
_ Diocese of Sacramento, Calif., 2005, pays $35 million to 33 people.
_ Archdiocese of Louisville, Ky., 2003, $25.7 million to 243 victims.
_ Diocese of Tucson, Ariz., 2005, agrees to fund a settlement trust worth about $22 million for more than 50 victims to emerge from bankruptcy protection.
Lessee, 500+144+90+350+552+56+176(and counting)+150+33+243+50 = 2343. With more to come.
What`s that verse about 'know them by their fruits'?
Wonder how much the Watchtower Society is up for with an alleged 25,000 victims?
ABE-Funny how the RC church fell back on using a worldly device like Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Protection instead of relying on the Almighty. :-)
