Worldwide, just over 2% have been accused. Just over 1% have been convicted. That’s less than other areas such as teacher, or male relative.

That said … one priest doing this is one too many.

Just over 1% have been convicted.

Since the average conviction rate is 2% of all crimes perpetrated, that isn't comforting.

When the church in the 60s decided that admitted homosexuals could enter the priesthood.... that was when it let the wolf in... Now I have little doubt that ~25% of Catholic priests are likely homosexuals who trade sex acts for promotions and power and are blackmailed as well over it. They have created a Cabal within the church that goes all the way to the Holy See.... Until they are purged from the church, you will continue to see the church rot from within.
