As always, it’s a good idea to pray for the victims and abuser.

Yes, that's what we always do whether the victims or abusers are Presbyterian, non-denominational, catholic, boy-scouts, masters, teachers, whatever.

In his book Pedophiles and Priests, Prof. Philip Jenkins—a Protestant and an expert in the subject of pedophilia—stated, "The most-quoted survey of sexual problems among Protestant clergy states that some ten percent are involved in sexual misconduct of some kind, and that 'about two or three percent' are pedophiles, a rate equal or higher than that suggested for Catholic priests. These figures should be viewed skeptically; the methodology on which they are based is not clear, and they seem to rely disproportionately on individuals already in therapy. However, it is striking to find such a relatively high number suggested for both celibate and non-celibate clergy" (pp. 50-51)

The numbers would be higher among small cults like the OPC (what's the percentage Dr. eck, really? 5%, 15%?) that hide this from the news by hushing the victims.

Us Christians (Baptists, Pentecostals, Catholic-Orthodox, Anglicans, Lutherans, Methodists etc) in contrary to the OPC/PCA etc (take note Gamecock, Alex etc) pray for the victims and the accused -- only non-Christian cults such as your groups, leftist organizations take glee in these horrible acts.
