Ae you obtuse?

Your statement was only the guilty should pay. I ask how it is that stockholders in large cases were "guilty" and you misunderstand the question on purpose.

Stockholders are to Companies as Parishioners are to Churches. And at least the stockholders aren't morally supporting the crimes of the company.

I am in Los Angeles. We have churches every 1/2 block. Catholic Churches are in the 1/2 to 1 mile range.

The families of the victims of the Churches should just settle down and shrug their shoulders, because the convicted perpetrators of the crime are able to use a shell game to hide their assets. I mean, they aren't "victims" in the tradition sense of the word, since the perpetrator is the Catholic Church (under Agency Law, which applies to any organization, in case you need a little legal schooling).

Yes, a Church that disappears because they lost under the Laws of the USA is no big deal.

Yes, shaddup and drive to any ol' church? Is church about The Word or about Socializing? You want to support a Church that hides criminals -- feel free to vountarily pay the price, if Ice Cream Socials and Bingo are that important to you.

Accessories after the fact mean anything to you?

No.

I'm sure money and innocent parishoners losing their church building and maybe a school will make it all better.

Church is about sharing. It's about FAMILY. People you know and that know you. They share your joys and sorrow. They make you accountable to the Word. REAL churches are not every 1/2 mile.

The whole church is guilty?!

"Stockholders are to Companies as Parishioners are to Churches. And at least the stockholders aren't morally supporting the crimes of the company."

Not true! Parishioners are have no ownership as do stockholders. They are like paying customers such as theater goers who pay admission even though the admission is voluntary. They have no liability in the monetary judgments. However the Cardinals, Bishops and guilty priests do. The supervisors who knowingly shuffled the perps around and covered up should be moldering in jail cells.
