Nice try, but no single institution worldwide has had the sheer volume of sex abuse alleged and proven as has the Catholic Church. BTW, Jimmy Savile was made a Knight Commander of St. Gregory the Great by Pope John Paul II in 1990.

Catholics will never accept the truth about their church as their foundational worldview has been hammered into their psyches by priests, nuns, monks and the various Catholic cultures in which they were raised. The Catholic Church and its doctrine are irredeemably corrupt which inexorably leads to this this kind of horror.

Ultimately, this sickness is even more hideous in that the the abusers are among the most trusted individuals in their communities and are assumed trustworthy because of their assumed personal holiness and faith in God.
