I-Team: Teacher says paying sex abuse victims with money from Catholic schools will hurt students

A Maryland Catholic school teacher told the 11 News I-Team she's outraged that the Archdiocese of Baltimore plans to take nearly half of the money going to pay victim-survivors of clergy sex abuse from Catholic schools and parishes.

Last week, the Archdiocese of Baltimore filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection amid the potential for lawsuits pertaining to clergy child sexual abuse. An attorney representing the archdiocese in bankruptcy court said Tuesday that the archdiocese plans to create a trust to pay out claims, 55% of which will come from insurance carriers and 45% from parishes, schools and related charities.

The teacher said she first learned of the archdiocese's plan during a teachers' meeting earlier this week, where her principal said the archdiocese would be taking money from school budgets to pay victim-survivors.

"There were a couple of teachers that spoke up, and it was kind of shrugged off, like, 'The Archdiocese of Baltimore is too powerful,'" the teacher told the I-Team.

The teacher said she and her colleagues agree that victim-survivors need to be compensated, but what she questions is the archbishop's decision to take money from schools to pay them.

"The Catholic Church is revictimizing kids. They've already made kids a victim, and they're revictimizing them," she told the I-Team. "My message to the archdiocese is to repent, to hear that it's the children that are going to have to pay for the sins of the priests that are continuing to be protected. It's outrageous. It's just outrageous."

She told the I-Team that her school has lacked resources for years, and the thought it would have even less money in the coming years is devastating.

"I don't see us being able to rebound from another hit, especially one as large as 50%. It's just going to continue to hurt kids," she told the I-Team. "I just appeal to the judge to think about the kids before he rules on where the money can come from."

^ Maybe send those kids to the publicly funded schools? You know, where the people in charge of the kids are dealt with properly when they do what the priests have done?

The rcc already took the money they're taking from their schools to pay for pedo priests from the public school system. Reaching into john q's pocket because they couldn't keep their hands out of little billys pants.

So according to the Catholic Church, gays are okay as long as they don't have sex (remain abstinent)

Quote:Archbishop Zbigņev Stankevičs of Riga, Latvia, a participant in this month’s Synod of Bishops on Synodality, has said homosexuals are called to live in chastity in accord with Church teaching, but credited Pope Francis for what he called his own “personal conversion” on the issue, becoming less judgmental.

“The official attitude of the Church regarding homosexuality is explained in the Catechism of the Catholic Church: They are invited to live in chastity,” he said, adding that according to official teaching the tendency of homosexuality in itself “is not a sin, but it must be faced.”

If a gay couple has already entered into a sexual relationship, this means, as it does for heterosexual couples engaged in sex outside of marriage, that “it’s a sin,” Stankevičs said, saying, “Every sexual relation outside of marriage” is a sin.

If a homosexual couple arrives and says they are committed to living in chastity as the Church teaches, recognizing that a sexual relationship “isn’t healthy,” Stankevičs said “you can pray for them and also bless in order to help them live in chastity.”

However, if a couple who are cohabitating and are engaged in a sexual relationship with no intention of changing asks for a blessing, “Here I see a great problem because here we are blessing living in sin,” Stankevičs said.

And this is where the hypocrisy of the Church goes even further: the archbishop claims that the Church does not judge people altough he just judged gay people who have sex and also judges them again in the next sentence

Quote:“We must welcome those people with warmth, not judging them. The catechism says we must respect their human dignity, not discriminate against them unjustly,” he said, stressing the importance of welcoming LGBTQ+ individuals with “love and respect.”

However, “true love is not separable from the truth,” he said, saying that separating love and truth “becomes permissiveness and we do harm to people when a person is living in sin…We do harm because this person is in danger. When they die, they are in great danger.”

They're not people. No hypocrisy, no contradiction, you're the demon for even mentioning it.

How about none of your fucking business what me and my wife do at home, archbish?

Gay people should be celibate!

Diddling little boys? That's okay as long as you ask for forgiveness!
