Internal church records released Tuesday show that Chicago Jesuits consciously concealed McGuire's crimes for more than 40 years.

I am overjoyed that these men won in court. The Catholic Church has tried to sweep this stuff under the rug my entire life. God will not be kind to these pedophile priests.

Six men who charge they were victims of former priest Donald McGuire have settled a sex abuse lawsuit against Chicago Jesuits for $19.6 million. The payout averaging $3 million a person is the largest individual amount awarded in the history of the U.S. Catholic sexual abuse scandal, lawyers for the victims told the Chicago Tribune.

Largest individual payout per person, but a mere pittance against the single largest payout made by an archdiocese ever: $660 million ($660,000,000) dollars!

Which is why I have not and will not donate to any Jesuit charities or buy any of their magazines or publications.

The Church allowed evil into their ranks. They got off lightly... for now, but this isn’t the final judge they’ll face.
