Well, not only does the Church owns things we have no clue about, but it controls the banking system everywhere. Allowing the commie pedophile priests to get as much income as they want. It's all thanks to the Medici cunts. I'm not sure if they were the ones who downright created the banking usury system, but they surely were very influential and passed it down to the Templars. It's quite possible the Medicis fucked everything up.
