Some things require no comment.

A picture is worth a thousand words. Sometimes, it's worth three billion dollars.

The three billion dollars would be money well spent if it produced a cure but have the conditions changed that produced the scandal? No.

The biblical injunction to remove the wicked man from among yourselves is no more respected than before as threads posted here on FR testify.

But the monetary costs are the least of it, great as they are. It is the effect upon those who sought spiritual direction and donated their resources, their widow's mite, and now see churches closed and dioceses bankrupt because greedy venal leaders wanted to keep their scarlet robes and positions intact.

There just isn't enough mill stones to go round.
