Would be an interesting thing to look at though. Compare abuse within the Catholic church to all other Christian churches who let their clergy marry. Has such a study ever been done?

I think there can be pent up sexual tension remaining celibate that can manifest in unhealthy ways that may not if expressed in a healthy way, if that makes sense… but I’m not a shrink.

Who overseas these Catholic schools? The Church itself? Or does the government have any regulation where religious “boarding” schools are concerned. Here or abroad. Not that that would “cure” the problem, but an unbiased eye watching seems like a good thing.
