the Protestant reformation in the 1600s was in part backlash to the commoness of priests breaking their vows, with women, each other and with young boys. It was so rampant they considered celibacy to be the cause of the corruption and by removing its requirement hoped to prevent the more immoral (for the time) of these acts (Sodomy and pedophilia)

The abuses and cover ups up the last century arent a new thing, theyre just the latest in a long history and the onky one the church hopes people still remember.
