Clergy Sexual Misconduct Study

As reported today by Jacqueline Salmon in the Washington Post article "Many Women Targeted by Faith Leaders, Survey Says":
One in every 33 women who attend worship services regularly has been the target of sexual advances by a religious leader, a survey released Wednesday says. . . .
Explain to me again how one could argue that religion is not fraud executed for power and control.

Now I wonder what the list of religious power and control abuse issues actually looks like. Are there studies in the Sociology of Religion that address that, or is it suppressed like other subjects inconvenient to religion?
