Child-molestation liability insurance has existed at least since the mid 1980s for churches. They saw the writing on the wall quite early. You're sort of asking for this when you put blind faith in a massive, unaccountable bureaucracy that is on a mission to seek out and indoctrinate young people. Here's a link:

And people were upset with NAMBLA, when really they should have been focussing on the Catholic Church...

6% of Catholic Church sex offenders have British Isles surnames. Kick out British Isles surnamed clerics and put a ban on British Isles surnamed men entering the clergy (any clergy)and the number of paedophile clerics will drop. The Protestant Church of England has been having an abundance of paedophile scandals. Some going back to the 1940s such as Protestant priest Robert Waddington whose crimes were covered up by the Church of England for 5 decades while he was shuttled from parish to parish molesting young boys. Another dealing with a close friend of Prince Charles's, ex-bishop Peter Ball, who had been offending male youths for over 3 decades and who has now served 32 months in prison and is a registered sex offender. Tellingly, in 2012 ex archbishop Lord David Hope resigned from the Church of England due to the decades of cover-ups and ill-handling of cleric paedophiles in the UK. Archbishop is the height of the Church of England's hierarchy (like the Pope is in Rome). Speaks volumes.
