Unfortunately, there were a number of priests at the time who were doing a variety of things with young boys that they should not have been doing.
I never met a priest that came on to me when I was an altar boy. From what I have read of those priests, they did things in private and told the individual boys not to tell.
Taking a whole group of ten year old boys to an R rated movie would bring a strong negative reaction from parents and church authorities. The priests I met would never do it out of principle. For a homosexual priest it would be a sure way to arouse suspicion and result in action by their superiors. If they were doing something bad with the altar boys it would arouse suspicion and questioning of the boys by their parents that might get the homosexual priest arrested by authorities.
Robbins is lying. It never happened.

...firstly, anything expressed as ‘a number’ would take a singular verb conjugation, so...
...secondly, since any ‘number’ of people have been doing all manner of bad things with boys for a great number of centuries, your comment really has little heft to it, don’t you think...?
