'Paedophilia not criminal condition' says Durban cardinal

Any church should hang their beliefs upon what Jesus has to say on any subject. In this particular case:

Matthew 18:6
But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.

The Christian religion does not specify an age for marraige, that I have ever read. I guess it was assumed that people had common sense and self-control to wait until maturity to marry. Sex is to be between a man and wife only. So there is no sanction for any other at all.

Other religions, like Judaism and Islam allows underage sex, sex with slaves, etc.. I've read some of what their say, and not going to post them here. If anyone so desires, they can google it for themselves, Talmudic teaching, Koran and Hadiths.

Glad I follow Jesus.

THIS STATEMENT from the church who declares birth control a sin, sex outside of marriage as being adultery. Sex with anyone but your married spouse is (according to them) adultery. Gay sex is an "abomination" before GOD! And gays should be killed. But old men who have sex with little boys and girls who haven't even reached puberty yet - that okay because it's an "illness". Like a head cold??

Funny how the standards are so impossibly high for everyone else, and when it comes to a disease that affects millions upon millions of Catholic Priests throughout their lives - then it suddenly becomes an "illness" The stomach-turning hypocrisy and utter self-serving bullshit of that statement is beyond belief. WHAT THE HELL is wrong with this man? Is this just the generations of ingrained covering up for pedophile priests to the point where this Cardinal actually believes what he's saying? Oh I hope not.

You can reason with a liar and convince a hypocrite. But you cannot reason or change the mind of a delusional personn. Not ever!

Yes and no.

People are born with their sexual polarity naturally inverted, but this is no different than any other Chakra being inverted.

Each Chakra is like a magnet and it can be realigned and set "straight"

The reason it tends to get crossed over into Priesthood is because the Medieval West didn't understand the body's energy centers, and when a boy was born fey, they called it "a calling" and those boys were routed towards the priesthood to be asexual and chaste rather than homosexual.

Soon it became a sort of underground railroad and support group instead of a chaste, asexual priesthood.

That process continues today, but is outdated.

Gay Men indoctrinating gay young boys also carries over from the ancient world where it was considered proper for an older gay man to mentor young gay boys. It was something that used to be acceptable and when that rug was pulled out from under them, went underground and into the priesthood.

They still operate under the paradigm that it's "Okay"

If we studied the spirituality of the East and learned how to incorporate it into the West, none of this bullshit would even be necessary.

No arguments over gay rights, no having to force the rest of us to like it or accept it...it would be something that would simply be fixed in youth and everything would be fine.

Please do not take my above explaination of what happened as any sort of condonement of Pedophillia.

I just happen to understand what happened.

So you don't believe, that as a mammal, your sexual nature is determined by your chemical make up? I mean, sure, EVERY other animal is subject to it's chemistry, but not humans. Oh no, they are somehow different. Nope, they just aren't bound by the same rules every other animal is bound to.

And the moon is made of cheese.

So God tells us not to cut the hair on the side of our heads but he does not bring up at what age a girl can marry.

Let me get this straight.

The Bible does not condemn or prohibit pedophilia.

That tells me that if we used the Bible as a law book. Pedophilia would not be illegal within marriage.

most if not all the abuse victims of today will have some kind of sexual issue as they age. The more morally empty will act on these desire, others will fight it with all their might. It is a mental disorder AND a criminal act. A lot of work needs to be done with victims to help them understand their sexual feelings as they grow. Those "sick men" you see committing these acts were once innocent defenseless children who were once abused, just remember that when you next call for these people to be strung up.

Here's the problem: You're trying to deliberately be an ignorant asshole.

The whole idea of Children being super-hella-precious is a very new thing, culturally.

The Bible doesn't mention what you want it to because back then it was an issue for NOBODY. Children were just young people from the time they could hammer a nail or drag a plow, and the girls were married off as soon as possible for one less mouth to feed.

Remember, people didn't live as long as they do now. That's another thing.

Okay, so now we have everything handed to us on a silver platter we now have time to treat children as precious objects of veneration and fragile psyches which, in turn, produces super leftist spoiled shitbags as adults.

Don't try to make an ancient text conform to your modernist, unrealistic expectations. You don't understand the trials and tribulations of the ancient world.

Now run along and get back to your wii

:onmywii:

It's true that many abused go onto become abusers and that is sad indeed however kids need protection from these pedos and we all know sex offenders cannot be rehabilitated. They can not commit another crime for many years after serving time but they are just ticking time bombs and most go on to commit more crimes.

The victims become victimizers which is terribly tragic but it is more important to protect kids than to heap compassion upon these predators. By labeling it a psychological illness, this suggests medication and/or therapy can cure the condition. This is 100% bullshit. It is a crime and needs to be treated as such. Kids who are sexually abused have lifelong issues.

How dare these Catholic douchebags continue to advocate for pedophiles. Jesus said what you do the children you do to me. No one seems to care about the word of Christ anymore, just about pretending they are powerful and somehow special and closer to God.

Of course people are born gay, stupid!

Of course people are born gay, stupid!

While I'm sorry for what happened to them as children, by adulthood they are responsible for the choices they make. The cycle needs breaking.

Hey ignoramus, you know nothing. This is not about age girls can be married according to the Bible.

This is about girls and boys being raped and molested by adults, and the Church wanting this heinous crime to be treated as a psychological illness.

Well isn't murder and sociopathy a psychological illness?

You are just an asshole

pulling all kinds of weird shit out of your ass about kids being treated as special.

You must be a pedo

who is pissed off that you now have less access to children to victimize them, that is how you come across anyway.

And kids today face plenty of trials and tribulations, without needing to add sick fucks molesting them to the list.

I disagree. I believe you're a nasty ass vile corn holing worthless fucking queer. And that's all I have to say bout that.

these guys cannot see the obvious

People are not born gay. Some children never, and I mean never think sexually at all, for some years after birth.

Are you a Marijuana smoker? I hope you're not tacitly teaching children that drug use is okay?

People are born with every kind of defect imaginable, including an inverted sexual orientation.

It's one of the easier things to fix, if you know how to do it. Unlike being born without a spine, you see.

The solution to this problem is very simple:

If you encounter a pedophile molesting a child, kill the pedophile on the spot.

If everyone would do this, pedophilia would be cured within a year.

If drug use is the same as child molestation please tell me your feelings on Novartis (owners of the Ritalin patent)?

If I am understanding your logic correctly they must be the biggest pedo ring in the world...or am I misuderstanding metaphor and simile again?

I have one caveat...before you kill them, at least afford them the opportunity to accept Christ as their lord and saviour. Whatever they decide, then kill them.

I am curious.

Does that mean that the pedophile will get into heaven if he accepts Jesus Christ as his lord and saviour?
