Uh, the part about the coloring books costing three billion dollars?
Do the math. By 2008, the Catholic Church had paid out three billion dollars to settle priest abuse cases with accusers. The coloring books were produced in 2007, in the words of one article, to alert children to the danger of being sexually assaulted by a priest.
So if the coloring books are supposed to work, what did it cost the Church to not produce abuse-avoidance coloring books until 2007? Answer: three billion dollars.
"I hear kids can get a free copy of "Being Friends, Being Safe" at their local parish, but the coloring book cost the Catholic Church over three billion dollars to produce!"Oh, and I forgot these:

The only thing untrue about Alex’s assertion is that it’s probably well above $3 billion now.
Or are you in denial about that?
