    So I'm having a conversation with my mates and we get to talking about how many priests and brothers we came into contact with when we were kids,and how many of them have been identified as paedophiles.
    Turns out that out of 9(3 priests and 6 brothers)there were 3 that were known(one was convicted and the other two moved on after the allegations became public).
    That's a rate of 33%,obviously this is an extremely crude and inaccurate measurement.
    Anybody else?

    How on earth can you possibly conclude anything on such a serious subject on boards....

    If you are talking world wide, prob 1% or less.
    Just us retards let them away with it!!

    Say there's 200 million priests in the world and 10 per cent of them are paedophiles. That's still only 20 million!
