    The church is financially struggling as it is… There are better things to put money towards than a massive virtue signal for something that happened near two hundred years ago.

      Oh no, one of the paedophilic population control organisations is struggling… I’ve got a tiny violin round here somewhere for occasions such as this.

      There are a lot worse things they spend money on, like some churches installing an extra bell so they can play longer rounds!

      For a start, the church could sell off some the many many many plots of land they lay claim to.
