I'm sure that a vast majority of the Catholic priesthood are honest, good, kind, God fearing humanitarians and are absolutely devastated by the slur brought about by the deprived wicked few that you find, unfortunately, in all walks of life.

Do some real homework.
There are Baseball Coaches, Teachers, Preachers, Rabbi's Imams, aunts, uncles, neighbors, Custodians, Politions, Cab Drivers, Business Owners, etc. that have also done bad things to kids.
NONE of it acceptable.
You are not labeling ALL baseball coaches as pedophiles, why label ALL priests as such.
There are bad people in EVERY group.
Peace!

No. None of it is okay and this is what drives us to Hell (a complete eternal separation from God). Especially for a representative of God. This is truly blasphemous. These men have hurt so many children and families and life for them will be scarred and painful. Many have fallen away from the Church because of this and this further stirs up God's wrath for us on Judgment Day. These Catholic priests need to get on their knees and pray for the salvation of their souls for what they have done. They have destroyed countless lives and their fate will be horrible without repentance. First and foremost they need to repent to God for He is truly angry and sorrowful at this unacceptable perversion. As the Bible says, unless these men become born-again they cannot enter the Kingdom of Heaven.

No it doesn't. If you are expecting perfect human beings, then you are in the wrong world. Priests are all human and some do sin and do wrong, just like every single person on this earth, like you and like me.

No child abuse of any sort is not OK!
In my church no priest or layperson can not be alone with children in any capacity unless they have a full police check first.

I don't think there are any heterosexual priests. They're all gay. Your question must be purely rhetorical.
Rhetorically speaking, I'd say no it is not OK to take a child's innocence, whether male or female.
