It is a fact that the vast majority of the abuser priests – more than 90 percent – are accused of molesting teen-age boys.

Interesting. Only 10% molest girls.

Could it be that the majority of men willing to take vows of celibacy and face the prospect of never being able to marry, are less attracted to women to begin with?

And not so much their willingness to make a personal sacrifice for the priesthood?

I don't agree. The rationale I have heard is that there is a gay sub-culture within certain seminaries that attracts gay men. Another theory is that gays who enter the priesthood (those unaware of this subculture) may be trying to run from their sexual orientation; that is, they believe that celibacy is their only salvation from their deviant thinking and desires.

YES.
