They're fully funded by the government Barry. That's an even better deal than what they have here with schools, but they're working on that. They got this sweetheart deal by exorting your government, btw, with children as hostages....right out in the open as a matter of settled fucking history, lol.
Who told you they saved the government money? A priest? Just goes to show the contempt they have for their flock, I guess.
Now you call me a liar for pointing out that the church is a shit talking tax dodging child molesting welfare queen?
Yes, they did influence the government to subsidise them. My father was involved in the campaign. But GN if they all closed the government would have to build more schools and employ more teachers. I’ve never heard a priest say anything like that.
I didn’t say you are a lier. I just said I felt your comment was an exaggeration. Child molestation was only in a small minority of schools. And today is most unlikely to happen in Australia as there are so many new regulations and systems because of what happened.

They already pay for the schools Barry, but as a side effect of paying for that thing they see the need for, they also subsidize your church and it's religion. The church has made it very clear that they're not educating children out of the goodness of it's heart or a commitment to education, lol. They'll do it, so long as the government pays for it - and they get those nice young malleable minds to shape (and other things.....)..to then go on into adulthood and say stupid shit at an atheist forum in defense of their running con.
All of this is true regardless of whether or not a god exists.
