The priesthood also attracts sociopathic abusers due to the relative safely with which they can operate and the access to their preferred victim class the church affords them more than most are ready to admit. If there was somehow totally accurate data on priest proclivities I think we'd find a higher proportion of pedophiles in the priesthood than should be statistically expected. But that's not really the point. The problem is one of institutional culture. Only an absolute fool denies at this point that the church made it way too easy to get away with sexual abuse for a very long time. Even if abusers were no more common in the clergy than in the lay population, you'd still expect there to be a shitload of abuse committed by priests. When they can get away with it, predators are going to be loving prolific in their misdeeds. Smudgie Buggler fucked around with this message at 00:58 on Jun 17, 2015 |
