some ten percent are involved in sexual misconduct of some kind, and that ‘about two or three percent’ are pedophiles

So, 2 or 3%, NOT the 10% you claimed. Can you read?

I said in Post #1 that I was sent an e-mail and I was not the source of the figure. CAN’T *YOU* READ ?

Also from the article :


“A recent study conducted in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania showed a 1.7 percent figure of priestly sexual abuse involving minors (cited by Philip Jenkins on “Catholic Answers Live,” May 17, 2002, archived at www.catholic.com).


and again this from the above article :


“The most-quoted survey of sexual problems among Protestant clergy states that some ten percent are involved in sexual misconduct of some kind, and that ‘about two or three percent’ are pedophiles”


So, my heading that says -— Pedophilia occurs more frequently in Protestant Churches — REFLECTS what the article is claiming.

But please, do not confuse my quoting the article’s point of view with it being my own. THESE ARE TWO ENTIRELU DIFFERENT THINGS and you ought to know that.

I’ve already tried to debunk the 10% figure in POST 25.
