We missed a chance to get rid of a lot of bad bishops. Fewer than 10% of priests were molesters. However, two-thirds of bishops secretly transferred molesting priests without warning the receiving congregations. They will have a lot to answer for.

About 4% of priests were accused of being molesters according to the John Jay Report.

Try about 3%. And there is sexual abuse cases in all religions. Studies have shown a higher percentage in protestants faiths than Catholics, but Catholicism is where the money is, so follow the money.
