If the church wants to try to get this under control, one place to start is to do away with the absurd celibacy vow associated with the priesthood. I’m NOT saying that it causes pedophilia, but I do think it possible that the “asexual” nature of the job attracts people who aren’t necessarily asexual, but rather who are struggling with deviant sexuality, and thus are trying to suppress their drives entirely.

Sexual repression isn’t good for the soul anyway, even if the people doing it are otherwise healthy.
