Whats the total percentage of Catholic priests who have been found guilty of pedophilia? I think you'll find its small.

And I wonder what the percentage of abused by priests is. I doubt it's so small considering the number of cases where priests have molested multiple times because of the protection afforded them by the Catholic church.

It may also be small because of the statute of limitations prevents people from pursuing the crime so the priest gets away with it.

You also have to take into account that Rome has covered their crimes so they could not be prosecuted and then there are the pay offs so the victims stay silent
