Except the ones they run.
Good point.

Typical church BS, do as I ask not as I do hypocrisy. Fact is the
church is a haven for pedophiles.
Even Brazil, a catholic strong hold is failing as people leave the
church, so bad it gets the Popes personal attention.
The reality much of the way the Vatican operates is profit from sin.
There's no question the Catholic church and perhaps other churches have
a serious problem with pedophilia. Perhaps the numbers of pedophiles in
the Catholic church might be drastically reduced in the future if the
church did away with its requirement that its clergy remain single and
abstain from normal adult sexual contact. Which is not to say there is
no pedophilia among married people, but the goal is to reduce it in the
churches, eh? Jesus, after all, certainly didn't require single clergy
or abstention. He probably was married, since it would have been odd for
a Jewish male of his age to be single.
