The anecdotal and historical evidence is driven heavily by reports and accounts of pedophilia and rape of women.
More recently, how about Cardinal Bernard Law who was knowingly transferring a repeatedly complained about pedophilic priest who had attacked many children. It was known the guy was messing with kids, and Law just kept moving him around.
How about the fact the Pope pulled him over to Europe and gave him a PROMOTION when Law had to get out of the US or face the ire of American Catholics?
How are Law and our last Pope NOT somehow guilty for the facilitation of child molestation on this score alone?
If something like that can happen today, then it is no stretch to take all the evidence of times past and put together the pieces.
