It is not the fault of the organisation but of some people in the organisation. Perverts abound in all walks of life. If the opportunity is there for someone to abuse their power, then there will be some who will take that opportunity....because they believe they will not be found out, or that the children will not be believed.
I stand by my original post.
There was more on the TV news and newsnight last night about how the UN have accused the Catholic Church of not doing enough to deal with paedo priests.

UN accuses Vatican of adopting policies that allowed priests to rape children - Telegraph
