Actually we're talking about Catholic, not Christian. The whole situation has been made worse by the fact that Catholic Church has never done anything about kiddy fiddlers in their ranks. When theres a hint of trouble, they cover it up, and move the offender sideways. This was a lot easier in the past, as media coverage didn't extend as far as it does now, and any child, or their parents, making an accusation where easily hushed up.
TBH I haven't worked out whether they where they where inclined towards children before they became priests, or if celibacy has had a bad effect on them.
