Pedophiles all over take advantage of the fact that their victims won’t tell.

Yes, we know that. The point I am trying to make is that the vow of celibacy is not irrelevant. I think it leads to a second order (lower percentage) of offender, the one that wouldn’t have abused children, but couldn’t handle the celibacy. Also I think the vow creates a society of people who just don’t have the wherewithall to stop the abuse. Again, not that celibacy causes abuse, but indirectly allows it to go on.
