And a dead giveaway that you dislike Catholics was that you immediately assumed that it was a Catholic priest. During the recent (2003) coverage of the catholic child molestation problems there were at least 2 or 3 stories circulating about protestant preachers caught molesting children. The one I specifically remember is a preacher in Fla. getting caught having sex in a van with a 16 year old BOY. If not for the internet I would not have heard these stories. Why? because anti Catholic bias sells papers. It's the last acceptable prejudice (so don't sweat it pal, nobody will look down on you)

Actually, there were a lot more than 2 or 3 stories, and they involved not only pastors, but other people in contact with children in things like schools, scouting, etc. It's just that the Catholic priest scandals were at the top of the news because of the widespread nature of the charges.
