Quote of the Day by livius 4/5/02

This idea that adults having sex with children is perfectly OK is the sickest of developments in America. It is really disgusting.

[LadyDoc]

Summary: It's okay to rape your girlfriend's 13 year old daughter or son, it's okay for a teacher to have sex with his or her students, it's okay for the 30 percent of psychologists/psychiatrists to have sex with their patients, and it's okay for physicians (ten percent) to seduce their patients, and it's okay for a 20 year old to sexually abuse his 12 year old retarded cousin, but it's not okay for a priest to seduce a 15 year old he met in a gay bar. Good. I'm glad that's clear.

"For any man who loves children will agree that their peculiar beauty is hurt by a hint of physical sex."

G.K. Chesterton, Orthodoxy. The great appeal of Chesterton for me has always been that he is gloriously "normal" -- in the sense that Mark in C.S. Lewis's That Hideous Strength recognizes the concept.

Last May, the Kinsey Institute at Indiana University held a Sexual Development Conference that brought together "sex experts" to discuss the "uncharted territory" of childhood sexuality. A volume of essays from the conference, published by Indiana University Press, is forthcoming, the institute says.

Where is Bobby Knight when IU really needs him?

I'm not a huge fan of Knight, but I think he and most other Hoosier men would rightly punch out someone who wanted to explore the "uncharted territory" of their children's sexuality.

Seriously, this is sick. How can that woman say that sexual abuse of children comes from lack of sex education? Girls are molested by Mom's latest shack-up because they don't know enough about sex?!?

Normalization of pedophilia is the goal of every liberal.

[Dimensio]

Reisman wrote that "the truly amazing fact is that at the time the activities required to perform the 'research' on children to obtain data on their 'sexuality' would have involved actions that were clearly criminal in all 50 states of the USA and that these criminal activities were being committed under the protection and with knowledge of the Indiana University. "

I hate to put myself in a minority position here (and I'm certainly not going to try and defend the book in question) but Reisman's claims wrt the Kinsey study are well refuted. She even sued for slander when reports came out that she was "mistaken" in her allegations and was laughed out of court after her attorney withdrew from the case.

I can think of a number of reputable people who I would considered qualified to criticize the book, but Judith Reisman isn't one of them.

First, the liberal academicians rallied for "free love," discarding the time-honored traditions of marriage and family. Then, they foisted on us the acceptance of "gay love" and admonished people to ignore the laws of nature and decency. After that came "fetish and violent love." Suddenly, Ramada Inns and Howard Johnson hotels started transforming into dungeons for bondage, domination, and sadomasochism conventions. Now, they're promoting "pedophilic love" and the lack of public outrage is stunning. What will come next: a push for bestiality?

Like climbing a staircase, each new step towards greater perversion builds upon the societal "acceptance" of the ones before it. Only this staircase is leading down to a morass of moral decay that will ultimately destroy our civilization. I don't know if there exists a hell, but we're surely creating one.
