There were thousands of victims.

As I stated quite clearly earlier.

Not one priest ever gave thought to call local law enforcement officials.

A large part of the Irish scandal was that priests and parishioners reported suspicions to the police and the police brass swept the allegations under the rug.

I read the Catholic Church was going bankrupct. You reap what you sow.

Certain dioceses have gone bankrupt because they failed to address these issues squarely.

My diocese is quite solvent, largely because it did face them and deal with them.

And 90% or more of Catholic dioceses are quite solvent.

Not according to this link. It did say that law enforcement was partly to blame but because it a largely Catholic society.

These seems to present a pretty grim picture as to solvency.
