Ron,  in Australia the figure quoted in the papers was about 7% of 
priests being charged...  I dont know of any other profession with 
such a high% of child molestors.

  First of all, I doubt the validity of that percentage. Perhaps you 
could copy their sources. But more to the point, even if 50% of priests 
were pedophiles how would that have any bearing on the fact that most 
atheists become atheists because it is sexually convenient? Whether 
certain individuals live up to Christianity is irrelevent to its 
truthfulness. I will admit that whether atheists become so because of 
sexual problems has no bearing on whether God exists. But, as I proved 
earlier, without effective rebuttal, atheists have no basis for their 
morality except their own desires. They, in effect, become their own 
God. If there is no God (or karma for you Buddhist/Hindus) then why not 
do what you like as long as there are no negative repercussions? "It 
ain't a crime if you don't get caught!"
