I should open my mind up to the "fact" that all homosexuals are molesters whose purpose in life is pushing our lifestyle down your throat and recruiting children? My life experience directly contradicts your "fact".

As usual for the pro-homo side, you are using a straw man. I never said, never meant, and neither does anyone else mean or say, that ALL homosexuals are child molesters. BUT it is an uncontestable fact that AT LEAST 30 something to 40 something % of all child molestations are on boys by men, and homosexuals are a tiny minority of the population. It is also an UNCONTESTABLE FACT that "gay literature" abounds with stories and porn (is there a difference?) based on the seduction of youth by grown men, and the older man/very younger boy/young teen situation. If you deny this, you are consciously lying. "Greek love" and all that.

"Pedophilia Chic" Reconsidered - The taboo against sex with children continues to erode

"This social consensus against the sexual exploitation of children and adolescents, however—unlike those against, say, animal sex or incest—is apparently eroding, and this regardless of the fact that the vast majority of citizens do overwhelmingly abominate the thing. For elsewhere in the public square, the defense of adult-child sex—more accurately, man-boy sex—is now out in the open. Moreover, it is on parade in a number of places—therapeutic, literary, and academic circles; mainstream publishing houses and journals and magazines and bookstores—where the mere appearance of such ideas would until recently have been not only unthinkable, but in many cases, subject to prosecution.

Four-plus years and many other challenges to the same taboo later, it is clear that this hypothesis got something wrong. For one thing, no sustained public challenges have arisen over other primal taboos. Even more telling, if nihilism and nihilism alone were the explanation for public attempts to legitimize sex with boy children, then we would expect the appearance of related attempts to legitimize sex with girl children; and these we manifestly do not see.2 Nobody, but nobody, has been allowed to make the case for girl pedophilia with the backing of any reputable institution. Publishing houses are not putting out acclaimed anthologies and works of fiction that include excerpts of men having sex with young girls. Psychologists and psychiatrists are not competing with each other to publish studies demonstrating that the sexual abuse of girls is inconsequential; or, indeed, that it ought not even be defined as "abuse."

Two examples from the last few weeks will suffice to show the double standard here..."

Your 30% statistics are VERY contested and debateable, if you just google search it. Before you ask me to refute it, it's your assertion so it's up to you to prove it. I'm not going to play "cite the study", because frankly I hate homework that can be done just as easily by anyone who is inclined.

As for the "straw man", it just gets implied often that we're all suspects, and part of some sort of secret homosexual cabal with certain nefarious goals. So I'm a bit overly sensitive. Sorry bout that.
