The Church is not a corrupted bigoted hate organization.

They certainly act like one.  The Church has squandered its moral authority, and it has none left.

Roll Eyes  I'll not even bother describing why this absurd; just look at the purpose of the website you got the info from.

Uh, the purpose is to expose and oppose sexual abuse.

Exactly.  The RCC, especially the Pope, has done very little to correct the abuses going on in the Church.  There is no comparison.  The RCC has lost it's moral authority.

The comparison is not apt.  In the RCC, the highest levels of the Church hierarchy are suppressing these investigations, and covering up abuse.  There is no such cover up in Judaism; partly because there is no such hierarchy, partly because the level of abuse is not nearly as large in terms of scale.

As a matter of scale, Jewish rabbis commit sexual abuse against children just as much as, if not more so, than 'Catholic' clergy did relative to their numbers.

We can't know that for sure, because we have no idea of the scale for the RCC clergy.
