You don’t see that widespread coverup and shuffling anywhere else. Much less where people look to the leaders to be Godly.

Are you sure? For the public schools, it is not only still covered up, but it is anathema to even speak of it. In the spiritual realm, are you sure that these abusers were never shuffled in Protestant circles? Even in cases where Protestant pastors were fired from or left one church, are you sure they did not simply go to another? Can any of us know, especially when some Protestant churches are not as centrally organized (which would affect the amount of records kept)?

You make a statement that cannot be proven when speaking of churches, and can be disproven when speaking generally.

Even when the Catholic Church is finally trying to make things right, it seems she is still abused, mocked, and scorned.

The purpose is not to indict or condemn the behavior. Rather, the purpose is to destroy the Catholic Church. There is no Christian charity in the hatred seen on this thread.
