1 out of every 25 priests. Wow. And I'm sure a lot more never got caught. So the real number is probably even more frightening.

Study: 4,392 Priests Accused of Sex Abuse

WASHINGTON - A national, church-sanctioned study documenting sex abuse by U.S. Roman Catholic clergy found that about 4 percent of clerics have been accused of molesting minors since 1950, a diocese said Thursday.

The Diocese of Yakima, Wash., said in a news release that the survey compiled by the John Jay College of Criminal Justice found 4,392 of the 109,694 clergy who served over that five-decade period faced allegations of abuse.

Dioceses nationwide received 10,667 abuse claims since 1950, according to the news release. Of those, claims by 6,700 were substantiated. About 3,300 were not investigated because the accused clergymen were dead.

In Boston, where the national crisis began with the case of rogue priest John Geoghan, officials said Thursday that 162 archdiocesan priests ? about 7 percent of those who served over the last half-century ? had been accused of abuse

I am surprised that its not higher than that

twistyneck · 02-26-2004, 08:37 PM

I wonder how this compares to the general population.

liquidmoe · 02-26-2004, 08:37 PM

Out of curiosity how does that compare to the national average?

rett11 · 02-26-2004, 08:48 PM

How it compares to the general pop is a great question...but the lack of prosecution by the church is the scary thing. If there are no consequences, why would they stop? Very sad.

Hell if I was a priest I'd be fucking those altar boys left right and centre.

"From high up on yer crucifix
You preach about my triple 6
You spit about my this and that
And yank away yer welcome mat
With a coupon jesus christ will save
So don't you christians misbehave
'cuz santa makes the list himself
And he's rotting on the warehouse shelf"

Nanda · 02-26-2004, 09:33 PM

That's actually sad.
I am taking a spanish Inquisition class and they said that molesting of children and molesting in general can be trace back to that era!

that's why they have the confession booth seperating

I agree. I think the reason that the percentage is higher than the average population is the number of homosexuals that feel pressure from wherever and try to repress it through their religion.

gross.

I am sure if you pulled the same shit on other religious leaders in other faithes you would find the same shit...

Thank god someone has a brain.

"Some studies report that in the United States, as many as one out of every eight boys and one out of every four girls is sexually abused before turning 18 years old. In 90% of these cases, sexual abuse occurs in the home, particularly when younger children are involved"

Pretty disturbing numbers for humanity in general, eh, KRL?

Doctor Dre · 02-26-2004, 10:15 PM

cauz right now this whole sex scandal is hurting church way more than if the priest would have sex . WAY WAY WAY more . Anyways I hope when there'S a new popee things will change . I don't beleive in church only in GOD

chodadog · 02-26-2004, 10:24 PM

"Seven percent of girls in grades five to eight and twelve percent of girls in grades nine through twelve and said they had been sexually abused. [Commonwealth Fund Survey of the Health of Adolescent Girls, 1998.]"

As disturbing as the numbers are, 1 out of every 25 priests abusing children isn't way out there compared to the general population. The numbers do sound awful, but they're not limited to the catholic church by any means.

gay priest marriages is what we need

pradaboy · 02-26-2004, 10:33 PM

"let them marry - less problems"

exactly, the solution in a nutshell.

i wonder why people are surprised about this.

humans are just mammals, and no amount of jesus and mother mary will destroy the male libido.

so go ahead and create an institution that requires a vow of celibacy.

an institution devoid of heterosexual sex.

what kind of men would join such an institution that says you can't fuck women, what might their sexual orientation be?

doesn't take a genius to figure it out. doesn't take a genius to see that if there is no option for marriage you are going to attract a high % of men to the priesthood who have a fondness for child sex, and particularly adolescent boys.

try a social experiment, say that priests can now marry, have a wife, a family---and see who now wants to join the priesthood.

a no-brainer.
