Yes, but it also is besides the point. People gladly attack the Catholic Church and they do so with a kind of seething hatred or blind ignorance that allows them to assign to the Church a unique status in this regard. But the fact is that child abuse[0] is or was present in all institutions that deal with children, both religious and secular. In fact, the rate of abusive priests in the Church (estimated to be about 4%) is average or below the rates elsewhere, especially public schools where it is something like 10% among staff, last I checked.

And I wonder if the parent above knows how protective these Jewish communities are of their own. They do not like to involve the state in their affairs.

So none of this is unique or even extraordinarily present in the Catholic Church.

[0] And by "child abuse", certainly in the Church, it is best described as a homosexual ephebophilia scandal. That is, 80% of abuse victims were post-pubescent teenage males.

Do you have a source for this number?

*edit: looks like you're an order of magnitude off, the number is closer to 500k [0]
