The term “pedophile priest” was contrived so as to obscure the true nature of the problem: networks of homosexual Catholic priests and prelates who preyed on those in their care and promoted and protected each other. Most often, their targets were not young children but male teens in parish high schools or young adults in seminary. Normal, straight seminarians and priests who resisted often suffered retaliation and career consequences, especially if they were of traditional views and solid as to doctrine.
Thank you for clarifying this. If the truth is to be revealed,it must be the truth.You make a very important point.
