by Geoffrey Grinder, Now The End Begins:

During the period from July 1, 2017, to June 30, 2018, 1,385 adults came forward with 1,455 allegations of abuse, according to the annual report of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops’ Secretariat of Child and Youth Protection. That was up from 693 allegations in the previous year. The report attributed much of the increase to a victim compensation program implemented in five dioceses in New York state. According to the report, Catholic dioceses and religious orders spent $301.6 million during the reporting period on payments to victims, legal fees and child-protection efforts.

Quantifying its vast sex-abuse crisis, the U.S. Roman Catholic Church said Friday that allegations of child sex abuse by clerics more than doubled in its latest 12-month reporting period, and that its spending on victim compensation and child protection surged above $300 million.

The Roman Catholic Church is so wealthy that it can dig into its pockets and spend over $300 million dollars and never once announce a cutback or a program closing of any real magnitude. And the Roman Catholic Church  is corrupt that the massive amount I just mentioned is being spent on lawsuits from child sex abuse victims after being raped and molested by pedophile priests. Despite all that, people keep joining the Catholic Church. People never learn.

“And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.” Revelation 17:4,5 (KJV)

If you think things in the Catholic Church are bad now, if you’re unsaved, just wait until  you see what happens to the ‘holy mother church‘ in the time of Jacob’s trouble. It will be the One World Religion and led by Antichrist.

US Catholic Church reports big rise in sex-abuse allegations

FROM THE AP: During the period from July 1, 2017, to June 30, 2018, 1,385 adults came forward with 1,455 allegations of abuse, according to the annual report of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops’ Secretariat of Child and Youth Protection. That was up from 693 allegations in the previous year. The report attributed much of the increase to a victim compensation program implemented in five dioceses in New York state.

ACCORDING TO THE REPORT, CATHOLIC DIOCESES AND RELIGIOUS ORDERS SPENT $301.6 MILLION DURING THE REPORTING PERIOD ON PAYMENTS TO VICTIMS, LEGAL FEES AND CHILD-PROTECTION EFFORTS. THAT WAS UP 14% FROM THE PREVIOUS YEAR AND DOUBLE THE AMOUNT SPENT IN THE 2014 FISCAL YEAR.

The number of allegations is likely to rise further during the current fiscal year, given that Catholic dioceses in New Jersey and Pennsylvania have started large compensation programs in the wake of a scathing Pennsylvania grand jury report released in August. The grand jury identified more than 300 priests in six of the state’s dioceses who have been credibly accused of child sexual abuse committed over many decades.
