All of your reasons are certainly enough to give people pause. But, in the larger scheme of things, they are not as important as the RCC promulgating:
1. False Gospel
2. Goddess worship under Marianism.
3. False priesthood
4. Popes
5. The Mass
6. Indulgences ( yes they still exist ) and the framework of "merit" supporting them.
As you say there are certainly other reasons for the RCC to be buried in fire and brimstone but just the first of my examples will do. I'd prefer the people within the RCC be awakened by the Spirit of God and come out of it prior to such an event. But I have no love for the edifice of the RCC itself. It can sink into the pit.
The reasons given are not my primary issues with the RCC. Praying to statues and departed saints, and to Mary are the biggest issues I have with the RCC. The child abuse is horrible, but I know that happens in other churches as well and I cannot blame the RCC for that.
Interesting ... I've wondered about that. I couldn't think of a reason why it would be in the RCC church only save priests can't get married. Maybe I'm better of not knowing.

I know of child abuse cases in protestant churches because I have counselled with victims. They were grown up when I spoke with them, but still affected. It is not limited to the RCC.

Aside: Hard to attached "likes" to such statements. (awkward giggle)
So, is the situation as bad in protestant churches in your opinion .... or worse in some denominations than others .....probably you don't have enough stats to form valid conclusions.

It is a sin issue that is hidden in the darkness everywhere. There is no way to answer your question with facts, but if I had to venture a guess, I suspect it is about the same with child abuse as a whole, but there might be more homosexual child abuse in the RCC because it is a place where some gay men have become priests and are hidden because they cannot marry. That is just an opinion, because there is no way to know.
