The problem, and its not limited to this case, arises especially when insurance forces action against others by the insured that is designed to protect the insurance company regardless of third party costs. Not sure that I have put that clearly enough. I agree 2t.<br /><br />I agree, too, with you Bob on both points.

The man was/is (he doesn't appear to have shown remorse) evil - he preyed on children.<br /><br />And, in this instance, the Catholic Church stands condemned.<br /><br />cheers<br /><br />Bob ClarkeAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06204107727656943931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24338064.post-25173104875616502172016-09-23T12:14:20.594+10:002016-09-23T12:14:20.594+10:00Churches occupy a privileged position in our socie...Churches occupy a privileged position in our society and state. The actions of any individual or small band of individuals can blacken the name of a generally worthy enterprise, but a culture of cover ups, blame diversion and actions which result in continuation of a problem, not addressing it, should threaten the privileges offered. The Princes of Rome did not get that name by living like peasants, and for the record, I am not targeting the Catholic Church alone. 2 tannersnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24338064.post-61780336154661527942016-09-23T00:23:22.878+10:002016-09-23T00:23:22.878+10:00It's even worse when institutions that occupy ...It's even worse when institutions that occupy a higher place in our society try to cover it up - either because they affect not to recognise diabolical evil for what it is or because their insurers prevail upon them. The Insurance Act should be amended forthwith to prevent carriers from writing any form of cover that indemnifies Churches and the like from this type of depravity. <br /><br />DGAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
