Read again what you just posted. If the premise of the original post is true, who is more guilty of a wide scale cover up?!?
And the corollary:
“Oh, if only those evangelicals would allow their ministers to marry, none of this would have happened!”

I think your post is emblematic of the problem the Roman Church faces...
Instead of cleaning up, the Roman Church shuffled everyone around and covered things up. Eventually, it became public. Even today on FR, posters prefer to point at others to justify their behavior, instead of living up to God’s standards.
EVERY TIME a church of any denomination allows, excuses or covers up abuse, it is wrong.
