Author William Federer was asked by a college student: "What's wrong with adult-child sex? We read in an American Pediatric Association report that it could be beneficial for children." Say what? What's wrong with adult-child sex? Federer was asked that during the Q&A session of his talk "Preserving the Traditional Marriage" at Indiana University. Why is that question even on the table?
Here is Webster's definition of the word "pedophilia": abnormal sexual desire in an adult for children.
Now, perhaps I'm intolerant when I say that adult-child sex is absolutely morally wrong. Perhaps I'm not compassionate when I'm against what many call "children's liberation" (which is actually a lame code phrase for adults wanting sex with kids). But what are college students thinking today? What was unthinkable years ago is now thought of as "beneficial"? No wonder the North American Man-Boy Love Association (NAMBLA), which is openly advocating the abolishment of all age of sexual consent laws, is emboldened.
Federer says in his WorldNetDaily.com article Same-Sex Marriage Damaging to Children, "For 5,000 years, the overwhelming majority of the civilized world had defined marriage as one man and one woman."
The reason why African Americans as a whole are opposed to gay marriage is not only because of spiritual beliefs, but because in all of African history, there is no instance of same-sex marriage. There was polygamy in Africa, yes. There were Egyptian Ptolemic brother-sister marriages, such as that which produced the famous Cleopatra VII (there were seven Cleopatras), yes. But never did an African man marry another African man or an African woman marry another African woman.
He also asked that student:
"if he thought individuals exist who desire to sexually abuse children and wouldn't they be tempted to adopt."
No answer was indicated. He also said,
"I asked him who was going to police to make sure pedophiles don't adopt. He said that would be impossible. Exactly my point, I answered, it would be impossible. There would be no way to protect children from sexual predators if homosexuals were allowed to marry and adopt."
So could it be plausible that two members of NAMBLA who would cohabit and claim to be married may want to adopt a boy or boys? Or even gays who have a sexual orientation called pederasty.
Ed Hougen, editor of the gay publication The Guide, said in the Lambda Report, "I believe they (NAMBLA) are generally interested in the right of young people to be sexual...I am glad there is a group like NAMBLA that is willing to be courageous."
Is the right of young people to be sexual a part of gay rights? The 1972 Gay Rights Platform demanded "Repeal of all laws governing the age of sexual consent." Is this a good thing? As always, the African American community will not stand for that either.
Anyone favoring such things can always rationalize away old fashioned morality. And physical evidence about "damage to children" can be argued about. But the fact remains that adults control children. So it is intolerant that adults who are in positions of power over children to have the ability to legally have sex with them. The children are not old enough to decide such things for themselves.
There are adults who, given the chance, would push kids to have sex, do drugs, get drunk, or rob banks.
Homosexuals do not reproduce, they recruit.
Kyle: Dude! You have sex with children!NAMBLA Leader: We are human! Most of us didn't even choose to be attracted to young boys! We were born that way! We can't help the way we are, and if you all can't understand that, well, then, I guess you'll just have to put us away! (This speech appears to make most of the crowd think a little.)
Kyle: Dude! You have SEX with CHILDREN!
Stan: Yeah! Y'know, we believe in equality for everybody and tolerance and all that gay stuff, but dude, f**k you!
Kyle: Seriously!
HUH?
Now, perhaps I'm intolerant when I say that adult-child sex is absolutely morally wrong.
The Virgin Mary was 14 years old when impregnated by the Holy Spirit. Does this make the Holy Spirit a pedophile?
What do the Egyptian Greeks have to do with "African Americans"?
It makes you wonder what perverted creeps go into Pediatrics.
The key word being, VIRGIN. He didn't have SEX with her. :)
Okay, seriously, though... you're missing the whole point.
Probably because the title said, "Why even ask?"
What the hell is wrong with you?
