... Homosexuals are homosexual and pedophiles are pedophiles. They are not mutually inclusive terms.
A homosexual who is also a pedophile is both, IMO. Some try to negate the homosexuality altogether, but that's nothing but agenda driven nonsense.
But your statement above clearly states that you believe homosexuals are also pedphiles because they are homosexuals, and I'm calling bullshit.
It's only reasonable to recognize that not all homosexuals are prone to desire children for sexual gratification... however with that said homosexuals are proven to have advanced their thoughts which focused on deviant sexual gratification to action... and there are vastly more pedophiles within the homosexual community as a function of percentage than the hetero community... this is the crux of the sourced report by the OP. It does not suggest that ALL homosexuals are pedophiles, per se, only that homosexuals have a substantially higher likelihood of molesting a child than their hetero-counterparts.
The only distinction between a homosexual that engages in sex with an adult and one that engages with children is one that involves legalities... as both are comprised of individuals that obsess on deviant sexual behavior. But what you must realize is that the principle-less steps that the Western culture has taken to normalize deviant behavior to accommodate the homosexual, will and must inevitably do the same for the pedophile.
"What the ****?" you may be asking... But it's a function of that most sacred of all leftist twisted concepts: Fairness. Our generation has accepted homosexuality, thus the next will embrace it and all that comes along with it and it will do so in the name of fairness for the lowly pedophile...
Try this:
Using any of the clichés that were and continue to be used to justify the normalization of the homosexual deviancy, advocate for the normalization of pedophilia... "Pedophiles are people too..." "Pedophiles don't CHOOSE to be pedophiles..." and so on... Now take a contesting position and lay out the reasoning why pedophilia is wrong and why we, as a culture should not normalize it.
Inevitably the argument comes down to what? It has and must come down to the only distinction between the two deviancies: The intellectual means of the child to consent, right? And that argument has and must always come down to the arbitrary determination of the age at which the child is able to consent; a discussion which has and must always return to the authority of whom?? Those who know best... The Social Scientists... those who study the human mind, right?
So what you're faced with here is a function of what? Opinion, right? And many of those who study the human mind are of the opinion that 'adult child sex may actually be good for some children...' this, in effect the opinion of the following 1998 study: A Meta-Analytic Examination of Assumed Properties of Child Sexual Abuse Using College Samples," Psychological Bulletin, 1998, Vol. 124, No. 1, 22-53 by the American Psychological Association, or APA which was roundly and soundly pummeled by Dr. Laura Schlesinger... it should be noted that in the intense two week period in which Dr. Schlesinger invested the entirety of her radio program to discrediting this study, the most vociferous opposition to her contest of that study was heard from the homosexual lobby...
The 'report' has since been buried and you'll find little mention of it, period and it's nowhere to be found on the web... due to the intense public outcry against its 'findings.'
But what that tells us is that at the MOMENT... the culture is not prepared to rationalize 'adult/child' sex. At the moment the culture still maintains a shred of reason, at least sufficient to recognize that such is not just wrong but so wrong that the very notion itself is anathema to a majority of the population. But such was the case regarding homosexual deviancy in my own grandfather’s day... The idea that a Park dedicated to children’s fantasy would set aside a day to celebrate queers, would have been the stuff of unspeakable fiction; wholly unthinkable; that the SCOTUS would actually strike down Sodomy laws... "Are you kiddin'? No chance…"
One doesn't have to look around too hard to see it coming. Pre-teen and teenage girls and boys are being sexualized throughout the media... Thong underwear is being sold for prepubescent little girls and the sexual awakening of children is getting lower all the time.
In my own life, just this week, my wife and I have a close friend that is a foster mom. One of her foster kids is a 12 yr old girl... as a result of our Friend grounding this kid for lying to her, the kid disobeyed her foster mom and went to a dance to which she had been forbidden from attending due to her being grounded; she got arrested at the dance, so this began a whole investigation as a matter of course and it was through the investigation process that a supervising State psychologist laid the blame on our friend, claiming it was her fault for being too strict... and that the kid (A 12 yr old girl) 'needs to have more time to be with boys...'
So we can be certain that it is only a matter of time before the debate turns to lowering the age of sexual consent... and many of you that are in here today contesting pedophilia, will be somewhere in the future clamoring on about 'the Neanderthals' who are contesting the viability of normalizing sexual consent for 12 year olds, or worse...
I know you believe that accepting homosexuality is an enlightened choice... but it’s not enlightened in the least. It’s the antithesis of enlightenment. It is a principle-less notion which once accepted, can and will only lead to greater demands for more; more acceptance of greater and greater levels of sexual deviancy. The bad news here is that your own grandkids and or great grandkids are on schedule to be in the deviant 'Area of Operation' and your tolerance of this deviancy is only making it more of a certainty.
