Because studies have shown that the rate of NO is greater molestations in the Catholic church than in other churches. The rate of media coverage is higher, but not the kind of abuse.   If you knew anything about the psychosis that makes a person want to have sex with minors, you know that is not caused by not being married (there's a lot of single people in this world that does not bother children) and is not cured by marriage (there are a bunch of molestors that have much access to legal assistance, adult sex, but kids still attack).   Test run on the facts change so you can assess the situation more accurately.

In reality the facts are the opposite of their claims. Molestations fewer per capita than any other Christian group. Catholic priests are the least likely of all the clergy, by a wide margin, to commit sexual abuse. Thus, the facts destroy the theory of the discipline of celibacy is a factor. If something is a positive factor. Even the school teaches and family members are more likely to be addicts. God bless!   In Christ   Fr Joseph In reality the facts are incorrect.

What is more common, although I would say that even in the minority, there are some priests who have sex with women and children, including parenting. Again, this is a small percentage of the priesthood. You have to remember that priests are human and commit sins.

Pedophilia is a mental illness. Most pedophiles in the world are married men.
