We Protestants love to point the finger at the Roman Catholic Church to show how incredibly apostate they are by mentioning their cases of sexual misconduct. But the fact of the matter is that the Protestant church is very likely to have many more abuse cases. The Protestant church is documented at about 260 per year, and the Roman church is at about 228. The article above mentions how it is much easier to track the Roman cases since they are much more unified than the Protestants. This implies that there are many independent churches that the media sources do not know about. The argument that Rome is apostate or in someway evil based on the sexual misconduct cases is very weak. We would do best staying out of that arena.
