Originally posted by robbie carrobie because in the case of young girls the charge of homosexuality cannot be upheld, only
paedophilia remains, in the case of young boys, it is unclear what motivated the
molesters.
So this is basically what you're saying -
Hetrosexual abuse - cause - Paedophilia
Homosexual abuse - cause - Homosexuality
Now where would you put someone who abuses both sexes?
Originally posted by Proper Knob So paedophilia is the cause of hetrosexual and mixed sex abuse, yet when it comes to same sex abuse the cause is homosexuality?!
That makes zero sense.
does is , then perhaps you can explain the disparity.

To start with the data i provided only corresponds to US Catholic priests between a certain time period. Now it may very well be down to accessability as you early stated, last time i checked most relgious choirs for instance are boys only. A paedophile preist may have access to hundres of boys and only a handful of girls.

If that's the way to argue - then join 'em.
I'll write more detailed arguments if we can come to some consensus on basic terms. If not, it is pointless to debate further.
I don't think you're up to it. You don't have a good reason to say homosexuality is wrong, so you attack the posters who disagree with you to cover it up.

Sorry, but the biology could not be more clear. We are animals. To say otherwise just reveals your ignorance.

My reason is - it is immoral and unnatural. I'll never agree on any type of basic terms with regards to homosexuality. The natural is for male and female to participate in sex. If this isn't clear enough, end of story, end of debate. Then you're right no point in debating further.
I attacked no one, I just do not agree with people believing homosexuality is right.

It's arguable that only humans can reason.
I will agree, certain people are animals, in the sense that they have absolute no feelings towards any other and are complete barbarians.
There is a clear difference in humans and animals. With all respect, you must be the ignorant one believing we are animals.

There are many things in this world that are not right. That is why we Christians look forward to the world to come.

You need to do better than 'heterosexual = natural'. Why is it the only natural type of sex? Do you have a reason for saying so, or do you just enjoy spouting dogma?

Fine, deny the findings of science. Religious fundamentalists tend to do that, so it's expected.
