Benevolent Creator God?

[Mashmont]

The quality of trolls has declined lately.

I almost miss the stories of talking to angels.

I'm actually curious, because I can't get into your mindset. What makes you think anyone is trolling?

To some,  a troll is simply someone whom they disagree with.

I think you can use logic here.

Without any reliable data, logic won't suffice here.

  The proportion of gay priests is declining; 

We don't actually know that 

 the rate of new cases of boy molestation has declined during the same time period.  

We don't actually know that and I already gave two far more reasonable explanations for the same drop which are reinforced by data on the nature of pedophilia.

If you say it's a mere coincidence, do you have evidence it is?

I never claimed it was a mere coincidence. You by contrast have banked your hypothesis on a mere correlation with foundations that have not been quantified in any meaningful way.

Odd, in one sentence you say logic won't suffice in lieu of reliable data, then in another, you want me to rely on what you call a 'reasonable explanation'. 

 But I think it's pretty obvious that if the past molesting priests are dying off and new ones aren't being admitted to seminary, at least in America, then the rate is declining.
