I don't think anyone should be surprised by the results of the study.

The reason that the Catholic Church got much more press on the issue of sexual abuse is because of the The centralized organization structure of the Catholic Church.

That is partly correct. The Church is:

1 - The largest, oldest and best known Church,
2 - The Clergy are distinguishable by dress and expected conduct
3 - They represent a highly respected segment of society, as do teachers, peace officers and firemen.
4 - The MSM and the left HATE many of the moral positions the Church holds as true.
5 - The organization structure creates "deep pockets" for the trial bar to pursue.
6 - America has a HUGE anti-Catholic, anti-immigrant bigotry in certain classes and regions.

The reason the Catholic Church got more press is because it’s got much more money to enable far more predators.
