The article claims that Christianity inveighed against the use of boys for sex, but Jewish culture also frowned on it. It was spoken of in veiled language in Deuteronomy 23:18 :
You shall not bring the wages of a harlot or the price of a dog to the house of the Lord your God for any vowed offering, for both of these are an abomination to the Lord your God.
The reference to "dog" was a reference to male temple prostitutes, and the female temple prostitutes were the harlots.

Christianity was a "Jewish cult", so spread throughout the world an ethical monotheism very much based upon Judaism. Dennis Prager writes about this.

Yes, Prager’s essay was excellent.
