Shameful Thoughts

[jimcrackcorn]

As a medical diagnosis, pedophilia (or paedophilia) is typically defined as a psychiatric disorder in adults or late adolescents (persons age 16 and older) characterized by a primary or exclusive sexual interest in prepubescent children (generally age 13 years or younger,

Pat Robertson is at it again, making outrageous homophobic statements on his Christian Broadcasting Network, linking the legalization of same-sex marriage to not only polygamy and child molestation, but also to bestiality and pedophilia.

The slippery slope scenario is hogwash at best. Its a attempt for anti-gay groups to prevent the lgbt communtiy from getting equal rights. They are trying to bully and scare people into thinking all hell is going to break loose if the LGBT community is granted equal rights. Here is why the slippery slope argument wont hold water in the long run:

For one pedophilia is classified as a mental disorder in adults. Nobody can be born with it. The pro-pedophile camp would have show evidence to the contrary to convince civilized morally upright society that they arent sickos. Allot of changes in attitudes by society at large and research would have to take place before they would even think about considering legalizing pedophilia. Politicians are douche bags but any politician running for office would not touch the idea of supporting legalizing pedophilia with a hundred foot pole. It would be political suicide. If an court had enough balls to legalize it then you can expect anarchy to reign by way of riots and protest in the streets.

Second of all no responsible parent is going to let a pedophile within a mile of there kid. You could almost count on people getting beat down for even suggesting that they want to have sex with a persons child. Parents are already protective of there teens when they start dating. Imagine how protective they will be of a five year old. As for incestuous abuse the current child abuse laws would still apply much like a parent cant legally beat there child right now. Sexual act's performed on a child cause physical and mental harm to them. The pedophiles would have a hard time getting around child welfare laws to boot.

As for polygamist I could see them trying to gain equality in the future. However that would be at least 50 year off before they could think about gaining any ground. As for besiality I think the stigma attached to it would be a big enough deterrent. If not then you still have animal cruelty laws on the books that would have to be overturned. Also an animal cant consent to sexual intercourse so it would be rape.

I agree, legalized pedophilia will not happen.

What's surprising is the "born that way" argument isn't used by gay groups to gain equality. There is no absolute proof that people are born gay, just as there's no absolute proof that heterosexuals are genetically predisposed to be straight. Scientist haven't been able to determine (beyond a doubt) what triggers human sexual orientation, and without definitive proof - the "born that way" argument cannot withstand scrutiny in a court of law.

Back in the 70's a international gay group accepted the NAMBLA organization into it's flock. The International Lesbian and Gay Association ( ILGA) severed it's ties with NAMBLA in 1993 but not before the damage had been done to it's reputation. To this day, anti-gay organizations use this tid-bit of information against us.

What can be worrisome is that at some point in time you may have a weak moment and slip up. If you do, lie and tell them your straight!!!!!! We have enough problems being associated with NAMBLA as it is.... Just joking,,, but don't slip up.....
