Why do so many priests molest children?
<|assistant|>
One reason why so many priests molest children is because they are granted considerable power and authority over their victims. They are often the gatekeepers of sacred and sacramental rites, making their victims especially vulnerable. In addition, priests are often in positions of trust, often times taking advantage of that trust in order to abuse their victims. The abuse of power combined with easy access to victims creates an environment that often leads to the abuse of children.
