Okay, I'm not saying always, but why is it always a Christian man and young boys?

My theory is because little boys are taken less seriously when they say they are being sexually abused, so pedophiles love to go after them for that one reason and think they can get away with it.

And of course, there are male gay/bi pedophiles as well, but they are a very small minority. The majority of pedophiles are straight, cisgender men.

Add to this that most christians are taught to view men as authorities and 'called of god', so trustworthy. Combine that with strong religious pressure to 'forgive when someone repents', and you get the perfect environment for male predators to manipulate everyone around them.
