Bill Donohue of the Catholic League, when the scandal was front & center, pointed out (without defending the Church’s handling of the crimes) that in one week in the NYC public school system five different children were assaulted by school employees.
Never made “the news”...and he had names, dates, places.
There is no defense for sexaul assault of a minor; there is also no defense for holding one group to a much higher standard than others.
Its really about destroying Christianity.
Speaking as a non Catholic, IMO the problems with molestation have been due to organization, not Catholicism. There is a certain vulnerability to corruption within all organizations but they can be cleaned up and monitored by honest people from within.
