I definitely understand the rage against the Catholic Church because of the abuse scandals and the cover ups. It's completely inexcusable and they should be held to the absolute highest standard. Unfortunately though, a child is much more likely to be abused by family member or anyone close to the child, whether it be a teacher, coach, clergy, or whoever. It's a huge problem everywhere. The cover ups are the worst part because to know about it and to let them continue working and not turn them over to the police is next level for sure. Every Catholic should feel shame and disgust about it, just like every human male should feel shame and disgust that their gender is the one responsible for the vast majority of sexual offenses.
It also seems to be a cultural thing as some parts of the world where the Catholic Church is prevalent, have not seen the same abuse scandals.
