18 year-old Mily Veitch described a "gay" friend of 15 who was "in a relationship" with a 22 year-old man with whom he was "happy" and "they are even talking about adopting."

Let's put aside the whole "gay issue" for a minute and just consider the fact that we're talking about someone age 22 in a sexual relationship with someone age 15. Just what exactly IS the age of consent in England, anyway?

Dr. Williams did not urge the young teen to receive help in the case, which under British law is one for the police given the child's age.

I take this to mean that the age of consent is at least 16, but then there must be social forces that are attempting to push it even lower. I understand that a legal age of consent is, by its very nature, at least somewhat arbitrary; but I must say that even 16 seems to be pushing it. I have to admit, hearing this kind of stuff really frightens me--not just for society in general, but for the children and teenagers who are being taught that this kind of thing is normal. At what point, exactly, does such a relationship constitute pederasty? And they want to ADOPT??? Shouldn't this 15-year-old kid still be in school? And if they are somehow, inexplicably, allowed to adopt some poor child, this is the kind of depravity he will learn from his "parents"...

I weep for this generation.
