Age of consent, paedophilia, NAMBLA etc.

[SolemnBoy]

You make some pretty good points Pix. Just to clarify, my description of NAMBLA is basically their own because I wanted to have a fair foundation for the discussion to rest on. I completely agree that their organization is most likely comprised of paedophiles who wish to give in to their urges under protection from the law. They probably couldn't care less about liberating children in non-sexual areas.

I'd also like to point out that I'm in no way equating paedophilia with homosexuality. I'm merely pointing out that I believe they share some very specific characteristics:

1. They are not conscious decisions made by certain people.
2. You may choose whether or not to act on your urges but you are not at fault for them existing to begin with.

In terms of everything else, I fully agree with you.
