Of course, your site does nothing for people like me that abhor sexual abuse from any clergy irrespective of denomination.

If it makes Catholics feel better that their clergy molests at no greater rate than any other denomination, and indeed the general population at large, then great.

If Catholics are no worse than other denominations, then you can not claim to be any better with a straight face, can you?

It sort of makes a further farce of Christianity beyond the tragedy of the molestation itself.

“Go to church XYZ - NOW with 30% fewer reported molestations than those other guys” hardly seems like an effective line for spreading the Gospel.
