Religion The wealthy Religion Industry is at it again

[Grand Uncle Horace]

The Churches are crying in the face of all the suits they are facing from people who were sexually abused by Industry employees.

Apparently * they are putting it on the State Governments to help them out and pay the claims. It is not that the Industry is broke. Far from it. They sit on $billions in assets.

They should be forced to sell assets to meet the cost of the claims and pay their debts.

Can you imagine a private company with that sort of exposure - theyd be bankrupt.

The churches should be made to sell all their assets and start again so they know what they stand to lose if they let it slide like they did.
