I’d be curious what percentage of the celibate .vs. not celibate clergy commit these crimes. Also I think it’s harder to become a priest than it is to become a Baptist minister, for instance. A Baptist friend of mine jokingly tells me they let lots of men become ministers, they just can’t find a job later. The Catholic vetting process might hold down the percentage of Catholic priest criminals below where it would be if those unfortunates were not weeded out to the extent they are.
