Excuses and whining..
The rate of sexual abuse in churches by clergy is about the same from Catholics to Protestants, from synagogues to mosques, and from Mormons to Jehovah's Witnesses and everyone else. One day it's a youth pastor who got caught in a sexual relationship with an underage teen, the next day it's the rabbi, the day after that it could be anyone from any religion.
Among those men convicted of sex crimes, only 15% had never attended church in their youth. The majority (56%) attended church services weekly or even more often when they were children. What might this mean? We probably don't want to say that mere attendance of church as a youth causes sexual criminality. But it seems to be the case that taking our children to church offers them no protection against a future of potential sexual criminality.
They're is no proof that white Christians are prosecuted more than other religions.
There is lots of proof that pedophilia is rampant in all religions.
