The pope himself is speaking of 2 percent, which would mean about 8.800 priests being active pedophiles. Among them high ranking clergymen. Just yesterday we discussed the story of one being brought to trial in the Vatican for abuses he commited in the Dominican Republic when he was ambassador of the holy see there. Not to mention the massive amounts of child pornography on his computer. So a person like that could rise through the ranks and it's highly unlikely for him to have started his pedophile career just recently.
The main problem lies in the massive coverup that has been going on for decades.
