Did the Bishop of this Diocese Resign?

Why are these Bishops not held responsible for the actions of their priest?

Why do you think there have been hundreds of millions of $$$ paid out in hush money and settlements? That’s just bishops using CHURCH money to keep their butts out of jail. It would be called embezzlement or misappropriation in any other context, but unfortunately, the actual legal title to the money belongs to the bishop—at least in some states. Imagine the president of any eeeevilll capitalistic corporation spending millions of the shareholders’ money to purchase freedom from jail for himself!

Why do you think most of the men who ARE bishops are bishops? Because they decided when they were young that they wanted power—and impunity.
