What do you think of the majority of priests being child molesting kiddie fuckers??

I'm assuming you're joking, but only a very small percentage of priests are pedophiles

^ Reminded me of a line from the classic sitcom Father Ted...

"If there's 100 million priests in the world, and 10% of them are paedophiles, thats still only 10million." -Ted

I know someone who grew up in Ireland 50 or so years ago and they said there were Priests that all the kids knew to be careful around but back then it was all kept secret. It's obviously not the majority but it's a ludicrously high ammount of priests. Celebacy is unnatural and a big cause of the problem IMO.

I'd be interested to know which Pope brought in mandatory Celebacy, when it was and what were his reasons?
