And if you're interested, it's not a fact. The church has rejected donations when principles were at stake. Sylvester Stallone, who claims to be Catholic, wanted one of his many weddings to be at St Patrick Cathedral in NYC, he offered to make a huge donation to the chirch if they agreed, they said no thanks.

The Catholic Church is very aggressive about raising money. Much of that money, goes to people in need. I don't see a lot of priests living in luxury, not in proportion to the hours they put in.

What religion are you, Dangles? How many hospitals, soup kitchens, schools, homeless shelters, does your church operate? It takes $$.
