Yeah I would definitely agree that the Catholic Church is perceived to be an institution pervaded by sexual abuse simply because it's reported by the media so much, giving the public a distorted view of the Church as a whole.Doesn't diminish the egregiousness of their actual crimes though, and the fact that leadership often tried to cover it up and sweep it under the rug.

When they do try to hide these scumbags they should be criminally charged. But this lets try to demonize a whole religion because of the actions of a few is ridiculous.
I did make this poll a while back to see how many people try to blame a whole religion on the actions of a handful of people.
