Statistically it has been proven time and again catholic priests abuse at a rate about the same as Protestant clergy and both are much, much lower than general society.
It pisses me off every time it happens and the church should have a zero tolerance, but the abuse is not about being able to marry.

Based on what's reported I'm sure there is much more.

Yep. How can a parish priest effectively give marital advice to a young couple if they have no experience of their own? I'm sure they can provide some insight, but it won't be as on point as someone who has direct experience, IMO.

Only through studies financed by the Catholics. But if you want to compare priests to protestant clergy then why not compare the differences in the power the Catholics claim for their priests to the mere mortal status most protestants claim their clergy to have.
