No accountability for the Catholic Church

[Nihilist Virus]

But the vast majority goes into the church's accounts, and I'm assuming a very large portion goes to the Vatican.

I'm looking at my church's bulletin right now, from a couple weeks ago. We kept it because there's an event we want to go to. 

Anyway, according to the bulletin, the little church I go to made $4,551.02 on the Sunday of October 9 from collection basket money. Of those funds, it's showing that $1,479.92 went to a charity called Hope for the Future. I usually don't pay attention to the part in the bulletin where it says how much was made and how much went to what charity, but I do know it's usually a fixed percentage every week and it goes to a different charity every week. A few months ago I remember seeing that the donations went to Louisiana when they had that massive flood. 

That's nearly 1/3 of the funds they made being given to charity. Not a small amount at all. Of the other 2/3 that are left over, I don't know how much of it stays in the local church and how much goes off the to Vatican, but I do know the majority of it does actually stay in the local church. Since people don't have to pay an entrance fee to go to church, the donation $$ the church keeps to itself is used to pay for the expenses of the place, upkeep, and paying the employees.

According to the bulletin. Lol. Catholics have kinda lost the benefit of the doubt. I'm not considering their input when compiling my figures. Thanks anyway for investigating.
