Do they? Is this a significant phenomenon, compared to some other line of work? Got any statistics on that? The accountants at the chanceries of the bishops these priests answer to, who audit their books, would be very interested if you have special insight on this subject.
Your comments sound like a casual, lazy slime from someone who doesn't know the field he's describing, but feels safe doing so. I know you're most likely just being sloppy, but would please put up or shut up? And preferably apologize?
Touchy, touchy. I'm not saying that most priests are corrupt, merely that the priesthood offers many opportunities for corruption. Charities work like that. I think you've overlooked the bit where I wrote "religious *or* greedy". Like it or not, not everyone is motivated by idealism, and enterprises like churches, mosques, temples as well as non-religious non-profits offer plenty of opportunities for diverting funds towards personal use. And that's all I have to say on this subject.
