I was quite disappointed that the Church in this situation acted worse than many corporate actors: it took multimillion dollar lawsuits before they changed their behavior, so that it left one wondering if the Church valued its image over the well being of its children.

Naturally. I didn't say that there was no corruption/problems with the CC anymore, just that it wasn't nearly as bad as few hundred years ago. Pedophilia is just a prime example of how hypocrytical religious poeple can be. Religion, especially catholisism, makes me sick. It has ever since I started forming my own opinions.
