I think you are correct that the abuse of an authority position with access to children might be the real the issue here, and that is often religious affiliated groups, or teachers. The data does seem to bear that conclusion

I'm gonna have to take issue with your definition here though

Though I would have to proffer to start that child molestation/abuse is strictly forbidden in Christianity (as opposed to Islam and Judaism), so by engaging in this type of unambiguously forbidden behavior disqualifies that person as being a Christian and would be nothing more than a claim to be a member of that religious group.

  1. A christian can't commit 'x' because if they did they wouldn't be a christian - this is pure fallacy, that isnt the definition of a christian.

  2. A transgression can always be forgiven in christianity, I don't recall Jesus saying you are all forgiven for your sins except the pedos
