The fact a catholic priest has no sexual relationship is irrelevant.A pedophile will molest/rape kids regardless if they are in a relationship with another adult or single. After all 50% of those arrested for pedophilia are married. This whole catholic priests are pedophiles, a significant portion of catholic priests are pedophiles or more likely to be pedophiles is nothing more than anti-catholic bigotry.
Pedophilia - children, causes, DSM, functioning, therapy, adults, person, people
In the United States, about 50% of men arrested for pedophilia are married.
Married US couples: 55521868. That’s 55,521,868 men.
Some data I found on priests:
Some of the raw data contained in the report:
Years covered: 1950 to 2002.
Percentage of bishops who provided information: 97% 3
Total number of allegations of sexual abuse of children by priests: 11,000.
Number substantiated: 6,700 (61%).
Number unsubstantiated: 1,000 (9.1%).
Number which were not investigated because the allegations were made after the priest's death: 3,300.
Number of priests who served during the interval: 110,000.
Number of priests alleged to have abused children: 4,450.
Percentage of abusive priests: 4.0%
Number of priests who are currently serving: 44,000
Number of cases of abuse per priest:
Most priests were accused of a single event
1,112 priests (25.0%) had two or three allegations
578 priests (13%) had four to nine allegations.
133 priests (2.9%) had ten or more allegations.
Age of the victims:
Almost 6% were 7 years of age or younger.
16% were 8, 9 or 10 years old.
78% were 11 to 17 years old.
My notes: Sex with an 11 or 12 year old is definitely pedophilia. But I’ll just use 10 years old or younger, so 22%. A normal married man with 2 or 3 allegations would be in big trouble, but I’ll use 4 or more allegations, 16%.
Some calculations: So that’s 4.0% times 22% times 16% equals 0.141% of priests are seriously pedophiles. A very small percentage! Next how many married men are pedophiles; well if they are then same as priests its 0.0014 times 55,521,868 equals 7,817,479 married pedophiles. If they are 50% of the pedophiles then there are 15,000,000 cases where there have been multiple complaints and very young victims in the US.Sure.
I stand by my previous post even more that before. You don’t understand meaning of the data you posted. It sure helped me.
