The Roman Catholic Church, over the past few decades, has been rocked by
revelations of widespread sexual abuse of children and women by
priests. The latest of such reports surfaced last week in Italy where a
priest was suspended from his parish over claims he used internet sites
to recruit potential sex partners. Another priest is also facing
defrocking as well as judicial proceedings over allegations he had
dozens of sex partners.
But that’s just the tip of the iceberg for sex scandals that have tarnished the Catholic Church’s reputation worldwide. Last month, an Australian commission on child abuse made shocking revelations after launching a 4 year probe. It found that 7 percent of all Catholic priests in the country were alleged sex abuse perpetrators. The average age of victims was said to have been 10 for girls and 11 for boys.
