 Catholics' changing views

The Globe polled Catholics statewide in 1992 after the James R. Porter abuse case and has conducted three additional polls in the wake of the most recent scandal.

Has what you have learned about sexual abuse of children by priests caused you to lose confidence in the Catholic Church as an institution?




Polls conducted by KRC/Communications Research. Sampling and margin of error vary among surveys.
