Not Just Independent Contractors
[T]he church argues it cannot be held liable for any damages claim because Duggan was not employed by the Sydney Archdiocese. Rather, priests have "a contract with God" and not with their employer.Oh, wait... Pell -- who cultivated the vocations of the Melbourne clique known as the "Spice Girls" -- wants to bring the church back to 1958. You lot like that.... So you'll just keep trashing Mahony and let Mama Spice off the hook.
But "a contract with God" makes Ed Egan's "independent contractors" defense of abuse cases in Bridgeport look downright pedestrian.
Hat tip to the newly-promoted Archbishop Ichiban Jim.

For all Pell was ever worth, he just flushed it down the ol' credibility crapper. And I suppose when God finished with the Nativity, he took a moment to sign all paychecks leaving the Archdiocese's payroll? No, he probably used pay-pal.
Not to mention that there is no source for that "church argue[ment]".
