I already told you. The Pope is infallible, the Pope runs the Vatican, several Popes haven't made any noticeable effort to purge pedophiles and those who have enabled them over the years, and since Catholics are supposed to believe that their Pope is infallible then either they're bad Catholics who don't pay attention to the Pope or they stick their fingers in their ears and pretend all is well. Either way Catholics continue to at least tacitly support a regime that enables pedophiles and since the nature of Catholicism is to consider the actions (or non-actions) of the Pope to be infallible then they are tacitly supporting pedophiles, which by association supports pedophilia. No matter how much Catholics realize this it doesn't make it not true.

This is different with Muslims because they do not have an infallible, central authority who dictates what they do and do not believe so they are not inherently responsible for the actions of Islamic terrorists.
