Christian Churches pay big money to cover up for their Mullah’s. From the time of Reverent Baker (Tami Faye’s ex husband) who were cut twice with prostitutes to other men of cloth (or no cloth sometimes), the Christian Churches are paying big money to cover up their Mullah’s. Here is the latest report.

Fri Mar 7, 6:42 PM ET WASHINGTON (AFP) - The Roman Catholic church in the United States paid out 615 million dollars (400 million euros) last year for child sex abuse cases involving members of the clergy, or 54 percent more than the previous year, an official report showed Friday.

Of the monies paid out by the church, 526 million dollars went to settling cases -- almost double the amount paid out in 2006, the annual report on how well the church is implementing a charter to protect youngsters said.Around 23 million dollars was paid out for therapy for victims or support for accused offenders, and 60 million dollars for legal fees, said the report, which was commissioned by the US Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB).

The report showed that 689 new allegations of abuse were lodged last year -- three percent fewer than in 2006 -- but most involved cases dating back decades.Most victims were male, and more than half were between the ages of 10 and 14 when the abuse began.

While the number of new allegations has declined from 2004 to 2007, costs related to allegations increased in the same period, the report said.Between 2006 and 2007 alone, "expenditure related to allegations increased by 54 percent," due mainly to a near-doubling of the amount paid out for settlements in 2007, it said, showing that other pay-outs had fallen.
