This problem is rampant around the world within the Catholic church and all we hear is accusations of hatred and bitterness for pointing out the hypocrisy and collusion that exists within the Catholic church.

Seems that the only ones who can see it are those not blinded by the indoctrination of the Catholic church.

Some of the most vile, reprehensible, and destructive sin that exists and the practitioners of it are given a pass and those who speak against it are the bad guys.

Image is everything, isn't it?

Matthew 23:25-28 25 “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you clean the outside of the cup and the plate, but inside they are full of greed and self-indulgence. 26 You blind Pharisee! First clean the inside of the cup and the plate, that the outside also may be clean.

27 “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs, which outwardly appear beautiful, but within are full of dead people's bones and all uncleanness. 28 So you also outwardly appear righteous to others, but within you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness.

So aptly applied to Catholic clergy for the sin against their laity.

Luke 6:43-45 43 “For no good tree bears bad fruit, nor again does a bad tree bear good fruit, 44 for each tree is known by its own fruit. For figs are not gathered from thornbushes, nor are grapes picked from a bramble bush. 45 The good person out of the good treasure of his heart produces good, and the evil person out of his evil treasure produces evil, for out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.

Wonderful fruit those priests are producing. /s

"This problem is rampant around the world within the Catholic church..."

Then you should have no problem providing corroborating statistics from something other than the recesses of someones dirty mind or sectarian hatred.
