People always focus on the Catholic Church, but studies I've read have shown that pretty much every religion are about equal on abuse of children. Some years in the States there were more reports of Protestant abuse and tons by Mormons and the Amish. I hear the Muslim countries are not so great either.
All Gods are blind when it comes to abuse it seems a great reason why god is either malevolent or worthless.

Abuse happens everywhere but the Protestant churches aren't shielding their members from prosecution by shuttling them across the country or performing internal investigations instead of contacting the authorities immediately.
