Read the rest of that blog where he says "I am in no position to make light of the horrific experiences of their altar-boy victims." and finishes with "Priestly groping of child bodies is disgusting. But it may be less harmful in the long run than priestly subversion of child minds." and you will actually understand the context of his comments, always a plus when you are trying to make a point 
In just the two sentences I've quoted he clearly says abuse of children by the church is a terrible thing, he describes it as both "horrific" and "disgusting" not exactly compatible with the view of it being "embarrassing but otherwise harmless" is it? But obviously he never said that, you just wish he did.
