3272...Sue The B*stards

That is the only way to keep the Catholic Church vigilant on the altar boy f*cking issue.

According to Huffington Post "The archdiocese [of Milwaukee] has assets of about $98.4 million but more than $90 million of that is designated for specific use by donors or otherwise restricted, according to its website. Its 210 parishes with 640,000 members are incorporated individually, so the bankruptcy won’t affect their finances...The reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. bankruptcy code will allow the archdiocese to continue to conduct its normal activities, but a bankruptcy court will have to approve all non-routine decisions and expenses."

In Canada, no such pressure is put on the Church or its affiliates. I think back to the priests at one of my high schools, St. Pius X in Ottawa, a place that harboured several child molesting priests and I don't see it being penalized financially.

May be this is not a, for wont of a better term, sexy enough issue for the powers that be.
