The rate of accusation - the rate at which victims, whether genuine or not, accused clergy of sexual abuse - was THREE TIMES that for Catholic priests. That may be the cause of a rate of conviction and imprisonment TWICE that of Catholic priests, since there were so many more allegations of abuse.
The Catholic criminals are still out, roaming the streets.
An interesting bit of innuendo evidencing angry bigotry, especially since you used present tense. Try calming down a bit...
How did I miss the point? You, once again, prove my point. Bishops were shielding the miscreants, hiding them, moving them around, and threatening some parents of victims with prosecution themselves, while paying hush money to others.
No one accused the Catholic priests, because as the priests themselves told their victims "No one will believe you."
Only now are the allegations surfacing, and the bulk of them are true, given that over 350 priests were dismissed from service, last year alone.
Ever heard of statutes of limitations? If these didn't exist, there would likely be 1000 additional Catholic priests in prison.
However, there are still known pederasts serving in the Catholic church, who have not been removed.
Why? Because so very many priests and bishops have themselves been compromised by histories of unchaste behavior, of all types, that a mutual blackmail web silences all, and the innocent fear to speak out, because the guilty advance fellow compromised individuals into positions of authority, who then persecute the innocent and orthodox priests.
The purging of the criminally and/or gravely unchaste from the Roman Catholic priesthood is far from over.
In fact, as shocfking as it sounds, it has really only just begun, because NO ONE has addressed or dealt with the widespread infiltration of the active homosexual subculture in the priesthood nationwide.
