Underwhelming statistics?
An article in the Guardian has the Vatican defending smears on them based on paedophile priest stories.
Firstly by claiming that other churches do it too (nice deflection)
Secondly by claiming that the majority of paedophile priests
were gay.
Supremely ironic given one of the vilest homophobic attacks is to claim that gay people are paedophiles. See this article for example.
but lastly with this belter.
only 1.5%-5% of Catholic clergy were involved in child sex abuse.
So if you are in a room with 20 priests, one of them is a child molester, and according to the Vatican that’s no big deal.
