This is the "sue the gun manufacturer" style lawfare.
The abuser is the guilty party...not the church.
Sue the abuser... I'm all for it.
Also, seven years in prison wasn't long enough in my opinion.
That CANNOT be a serious post.One of the tenets of Christianity is forgiveness.
Not taking action. It sounds from the article that the abuser confessed absent any accusation. Do you believe the Church had no part it that?
He was also removed and convicted of sexual assault of a minor.
"Creating an environment for a perv to thrive"? How specifically is the Church doing that?
Because the church actively covered for the pedos for DECADES. The entire organization should have been shut down as a criminal enterprise.Neither the victim nor his family suffered any financial loss. When something costs you nothing but you get paid, that is a profit.
And why, exactly, should the parishioners pay this judgment? What, exactly, did they do wrong? Most rational people acknowledge that when a pedophile joins a religious community he takes great pains to conceal his intentions and his acts, in the event.
What sort of fucked-up logic and pathetic vindictiveness leads you TT to the conclusion that the Faithful should pay this judgment?
Inquiring minds want to know.
