Sounds like it is a problem that the Catholic Church has had to "address" for well over a thousand years now. It certainly isn't anything new but has been an ongoing problem for a LONG time. Are you familiar with St. Peter Damian?
From St. Peter Damian's Book of Gomorrah :
Considering that the Book of Gomorrah was written in 1049 A.D. it borders on the miraculous to note how many of Damian's insights can be applied to the current pederast and homosexual debacle here in the United States and abroad, including the Vatican. His treatise certainly stands as a masterful refutation of contemporary homosexual apologists who claim that the early Fathers of the Church did not understand the nature or dynamics of homosexuality. Rather, as Damian's work demonstrates, the degradation of human nature as exemplified by sodomical acts is a universal phenomenon that transcends time, place and culture.
One of the main points of the Book of Gomorrah, is the author's insistence on the responsibility of the bishop or superior of a religious order to curb and eradicate the vice from their ranks. [7] He minces no words in his condemnation of those prelates who refuse or fail to take a strong hand in dealing with clerical sodomical practices either because of moral indifferentism or the inability to face up to a distasteful and potentially scandalous situation. [8]
Other issues tackled by St. Peter Damian which have a particular relevance today are:
The problems of homosexual bishops or heads of religious orders who engage their "spiritual sons" in acts of sodomy. The sacrilegious use of the Sacraments by homosexual clerics and religious.
The special problems for the Church related to the seduction of youths by clerical pederasts, and the problem of overtly lax canons and penances for clerical and religious offenders that make a mockery of the seriously sinful nature of homosexual acts.

The equally sickening part of this is that FR Catholics were successful in having banned as hate sites those sites that reveal this dark side of Catholic history...
