I'll need stats on "alarming rate", or is that your prejudice showing?

But I'll help you here: it's less than a 10th of 1 percent! Very alarming indeed!

Oh, Nice! Let's break it down!

Total Catholic Priests:

370,425

As of May 9, 2013, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) has counted 6,275 clerics "not implausibly" and "credibly" accused in 1950-2012 of sexually abusing minors. The USCCB total omits allegations made in 2003.

So 6,275 is 1.69 percent of catholic priests that are credibly accused of sexually abusing minors.

"Sexual assault is one of the most under reported crimes, with 54% still being left unreported." - Rape Abuse & Incest National Network

So double that number.

3.38% of catholic priests (estimated) raping kids behind the scenes.

Dats scary.

EDIT: Oh, wait. That's 6,275 of Catholic priests in "America". Oops. Let me recalculate.

American Catholic Priests 46,447.

*Shudders*

...13.5%?

13.5% KNOWN?

*BARFS!*
