It does answer your question, by making the point that the behavior is wrong in a moral "leader" no matter what you call it. Ergo, focusing on the verbiage is stupid.

And why is molestation reprehensible to you when teachers or Protestants commit it, but defensible when a Catholic priest commits it? And why is "But Daddy, they do it more!" a sound defense, in your eyes?
I get upset about all molesters. It just so happens that we're here on an atheist forum discussing religious issues, and that means your church is going to be one of the targets.
You can do better than this. 4/10, will lose audience soon if game doesn't improve.
