I asked on another thread and you didn’t answer. Are you still a Priest? If so, it could cloud your view on this topic.

I believe that, yes, there are abusers in all religions. The difference is that when a Priest is accused the Church moves him to a different parish and the incident is covered up where, a Protestant minister is openly accused and arrested. That might be why the numbers are skewed.

That's a non-existent "difference". Pedophiles have been shuffled around by sympathizers and co-conspirators in many organizations, non-Catholic churches as well as public school districts. It's what they do. And it's hardly the case that no priests have been "openly accused and arrested".
