Doesn't the Catholic church own more gold than any other?


According to the WSJ article the Vatican / Catholic Church has an estimated wealth value of $50 Billion - The LDS Church: $100 Billion. What does this tell you: The Catholics should hire the Mormons to manage their money.

That's a load of crap. The Catholic church are the largest non-governmental land owners in the world. Their art collection is probably worth a good $20 billion by itself. Then there's their archives which hold tens of thousands of "priceless" artifacts. They probably have 2-3 billion dollars invested in just Boston.
