Certainly. The difference is that when Protestant ministers sin, the police are notified and they are arrested.

When Roman Catholic priests sin, they are shuffled off to another unsuspecting parish where the abuse continues for decades.

Oh, right, the police are notified. Like that Lutheran pastor, mentioned above, who had one multimillion dollar judgement after another. How many times was he reported to the police? How long did his abuse continue?

Sadly, that is (has been) correct. It’s hard to replace priests, I guess. Gotta hang on to ‘em as best they can.

AND it all gets swept under the rug.  The REAL figures are unknown, and will probably remain unknown.
