Catholic here, but MAN a lot of priests got away with it without doing a day in prison. Even the great John Paul II didn’t address it enough.
I think it stems from asking them to refrain from one of God’s greatest gifts (marital relations). We end up getting lust that is horribly misdirected and evil.
Just my opinion.
Wrong narrative, if that were so you would not have married pedophiles. They just gravitate because it puts them in a position where they can cloak their evilness with the authority of Christ.
The Catholic Church, at least on Long Island, implemented a child protection protocol more than 10 years ago.
The priests picked on boys. It’s not a marriage problem, it’s a homosexual-pedophile problem.
