But based on the surveys and studies conducted by different denominations over the past 30 years, experts who study child abuse say they see little reason to conclude that sexual abuse is mostly a Catholic issue. "We don't see the Catholic Church as a hotbed of this or a place that has a bigger problem than anyone else," said Ernie Allen, president of the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. "I can tell you without hesitation that we have seen cases in many religious settings, from traveling evangelists to mainstream ministers to rabbis and others."
The graph might be from the Shakeshaft report from 2004.
A draft report commissioned by the U.S. Department of Education concludes that far too little is known about the prevalence of sexual misconduct by teachers or other school employees, but estimates that millions of children are being affected by it during their school-age years.
Yet despite the limitations of the existing research base, the scope of the problem appears to far exceed the priest abuse scandal in the Roman Catholic Church, said Charol Shakeshaft, the Hofstra University scholar who prepared the report.
To support her contention that many more youngsters have been sexually mistreated by school employees than by priests, Ms. Shakeshaft pointed to research conducted for the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops and released late last month. That study found that from 1950 to 2002, 10,667 people made allegations that priests or deacons had sexually abused them as minors. (“Report Tallies Alleged Sexual Abuse by Priests,” this issue.)
Extrapolating from data collected in a national survey for the American Association of University Women Educational Foundation in 2000, Ms. Shakeshaft estimated that roughly 290,000 students experienced some sort of physical sexual abuse by a public school employee from 1991 to 2000—a single decade, compared with the roughly five-decade period examined in the study of Catholic priests.
10,667 allegations / 53 years = 201 cases per year
290,000 allegations / 10 years = 29,000 cases per year
So that seems to be how they got the numbers for the graph. Depends on how accurate the "extrapolation" is. But in any case, public schools have a massive pedo/grooming problem while the Catholic Church is peanuts compared to them. They were just a scapegoat used by the elite.

The cabal hates Christians. They especially hate those vile Catholics who very visibly and vociferously stand up and fight against the murder of babies. So they took this very definite pedophile problem among Catholic clergy and blew it up to make it look like every member of the Catholic clergy was a pedophile. They used their media lapdogs to pound this into the national consciousness until it became a meme.
This was all done with the very clear intent to destroy the faithfuls trust in its clergy and to delegitimize Catholicism in the minds of Americans. They cant destroy Christians without first destroying the most influential and visible denomination.
At the same time they hide and minimize the crimes committed by their allies in evil.
I'd like to see it as percentages. Like 201 / # of kids that go to Catholic churches VS 29000 / # of kids that go to public schools. That would be a more fair comparison I would think. 🤷♀️
Crime statistics are published as a proportion of 100,000 to make them comparable across populations. So you'd see it as X/100,000 rather than the sum values shown on the graph, which to your point, would be a much more useful data point to draw conclusions.
I don't know what happens in the employment process in the US, but here in the UK we just don't have this problem with tranny Marxist unicorn fart teachers. Yes our teaching system is 'woke' and agenda-driven, but we don't have the actual bodies on the ground driving it. Our teachers are generally moderate and sensible. What the hell happened in America to allow these actual fucking pedo clowns into your classrooms en masse?
It's simple really. You have to have a college degree to teach in most schools. The craziness spewed from college professors and other peers is getting magnitudes worse every few years. Now connect the dots.
Unfortunately NOT surprised.
Remember trying to expose one as a kid.
Instead got told I was lying....meanwhile many from that school committed suicide as adults and now I question the real reason as to why.
Also tried exposing one in my kids previous high school again swept under the rug by the education board
I’m Catholic and have a hard time believing this.

The source material is pretty old and does not seem to reflect the extrapolated '29,000 annual cases'
Recommend skimming through it, but this graphic seems to be sensationalized and incorrect.
I welcome anyone to point out what I might have missed.

Nice digging!

Believe it. The schools are where the perverts are. More teachers than priests.

Yes and knowing what years were averaged for this. The public school number shouldn’t be that hard to find.
The rate of confirmed pedophilia among priests has always been lower then in the general population.
The rate in the church now should be close to zero as there are no opportunities. Everything and everyone is fairly well monitored.
Most if not all of that "201" is allegations of abuse from twenty years ago which can't be disproved.
Maybe you are right. They made big improvements. 201 just seems really low but perhaps that’s because it’s an average.
It seems really low because the media has led you to believe that every Priest is a pedophile.
I’ve never thought that. We have family friends that are priests.

Yes, and education is a default major for people who can’t pass accounting.
