The fault is not with the original John Jay data. It pointed to the predator issue by identifying the overwhelming victim demographic as young men and male teens. Here are the statistics, in Part 4.2 of the study: “four out of five (80%) alleged victims were male,” and “the majority of alleged victims were post-pubescent (87.4%), with only a small percentage of priests receiving allegations of abusing young children.”

This statistic paints a vivid picture: the sex abuse crisis was the overwhelming work of a very small number of clergy targeting young males as their victims. This fact suggests one reform that has yet to be addressed: the Church must screen out clergy candidates with same-sex attractions.

Exactly.

There has been a huge amount of hypocrisy surrounding this issue, with those screaming the loudest about the scandal (i.e The New York Times) also being the most vocal against any attempts to rid the clergy of homosexuals. In all respects, the Times is on board with the homosexual activist agenda, yet it feigns outrage when perverts assault young men.

In the many cases of sex abuse by the clergy the percentages are actually more like 90% of the victims are male.
A strange paradox- whenever statistics like this are brought up to the homosexual community- a bizarre name transformation takes place-all of a sudden the homosexuals who by and large are the worst offenders in these cases suddenly disappear and their place is taken by some amorphous pedophile.
In no case are the words homosexual and pedophile used in the same paragraph. The NY Times is notorious for this.

“...the Church must screen out clergy candidates with same-sex attractions.”

And thus the question of what to do with active priests who are homosexuals is adroitly avoided.
These well entrenched homosexuals will advance and protect each other for a very long time to come

[A.A. Cunningham]

Just enforce the 2 February 1961 ban.

Advancement to religious vows and ordination should be barred to those who are afflicted with evil tendencies to homosexuality or pederasty, since for them the common life and the priestly ministry would constitute serious dangers.
