sing4ppeace has brought another healthy dose of realistic perspective, based on actual experience, to the matter.

Akenaton, do you realize that you give the impression that you believe that a homosexual man who is not a pedophile is an exception?
You may not come anywhere near actually believing that, but you really do tend to give the impression that you believe it.

As stated in the article Ake linked to:
    Many close to the case have expressed revulsion at the profound breach of trust behind Rennie's behaviour. Child F's father told The Times that he took another view. "I see Rennie as somebody who I thought I knew, but actually I didn't know that person at all," he said. "That person is someone I once spent a lot of time with, a face I know and recognise because we shared experiences together. But he was actually an outrageous and disgusting monster.
Ake, I would doubt that there's any current truth in Ake's statement that "he is supported by many of the knee jerk 'liberals' here."

He was a traitor to his, cause, Ake. Certainly, other causes have traitors, don't they?

Art Said:

"The OP made no expression of sympathy for the children either, while he did make a reference to "our resident promoters of homosexuality". It would certainly appear that homosexuality rather than child abuse was the issue that the OP wanted discussed."

Exactly!

Touche.

Ake posted to prove his old tired laboured point and never gave any indication that he gave a flying fig about the victims.


Continued condemnation of "liberals" (from the guy who detests meaningless labels ...) is just a continuation of the same old axe grinding and would be laughable if it wasn't so sad.

NAMBLA is not a gay rights group. It is a pederast rights group. It has one issue: lowing the age of consent for young males. There is a big difference between gay rights and what NAMBLA is all about. Most other gay rights groups disagree with and want nothing to do with NAMBLA.

Yes, once in a while, one of their 'constituents', does an interview on one of the 'news' shows...That's how I even heard of them. They pound the same message about 'equality' and 'legitimacy'. By the way, their 'motto' is "Sex before eight, before it's to late". As for me, I think they should be arrested for either, child endangerment, contributing to the delinquency of a minor, or statutory rape, or conspiracy to commit rape of a minor, and or soliciting a minor, or conspiracy to solicit...just for starters!!!!

And Guest from "Sanity(?)," you are in the same bag as Ake when it comes to respect for facts.

Today was an off-year election day here in Washington state, and one of the issues on the ballot was an attempt by out of state religious groups to rescind a law recently passed by the state legislature giving the same legal rights to domestic partners as married couples. It's another of these hyper-religious outfits who are dedicated to opposing same-sex marriage. Carpetbaggers with neon halos. For the last several weeks we've had to listen to their crap in political adds on radio and television and I'm bloody sick and tired of their hate-mongering. "Christians" indeed!!!

And then Ake comes in with his wheelbarrow full of hate. . . .

The returns haven't come in yet, so the matter in this state is still up in the air.

If you will just pay attention, you will note that when I mentioned the "Christian" carpetbaggers who are trying to diddle with the laws in this state (the same outfit that screwed around with California's same-sex marriage law), I was not referring to Ake. But the intent of both Ake, this group, and apparently you, is the same:   stomp on the civil rights of others.

Don, Your assumption that I am trying to stomp the civil rights of others, is indeed, incorrect. Personally, I disagree with Christian political activism, nor am I in much 'agreement' with any religious denominations. Jesus himself said, for all those even interested, to "Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and of Caesar". I'm sure your Lutheran Bible has that quote. It means, to be wary of religious, and political worlds.

That being said, the thread is about a homosexual activist, who was found guilty of some rather extreme paedophilia crimes against, not only children, but even of infants! I think even you can agree that, in this case, and even in others, that there is no call to recognize it as anything other, that a perverted crime against humanity, and not to make allowances, for a bias, toward this homosexual, just for the cause of homosexuality.

Jesus also said, "Whomever offends one of these(referring to children), it would be better to place a millstone around his neck, and..." I should assume you know the rest.

I mention this because of your reference to being a Lutheran, and a Christian, I take it.

Now that that has been said, not all who see homosexuality as 'wrong', immoral, or a destructive element, are necessarily, basing it on a 'religious' belief....(such as Ake). But, because of the other thread, that turned into a circus of mindless political activism over truth, one could easily assume, that there was some 'unfinished business', that perhaps hasn't been resolved. Nonetheless, lets agree, that in this thread, to stay on topic...okay?..Regards, GfS

"My views on the fostering of young children by male homosexuals...."
What are those views?
There has been an ongoing investigation here in Ireland and elsewhere into the paedophelia practiced by members of the church on children placed in their care (on a massive scale and stretching back many decades) and the covering up of the rape and sexual and physical abuse that has been proven to have taken place, by leading members of the church.
Do you believe that all church officers (or all Catholics, or maybe all Christians, for that matter) are (potential or practicing) paedophiles and should be prohibited from fostering young children - if not, why not?

This is point is established in the article:

" many child molesters don't really have an adult sexual orientation. They have never developed the capacity for mature sexual relationships with other adults, either men or women. Instead, their sexual attractions focus on children – boys, girls, or children of both sexes."

Another interesting fact is that only a relatively small minority of the population believe a Akenaton does.

McGrath: It is inevitable that when a leading member of a community is convicted of sexually abusing children, including in this case a baby, that will be seen as reflecting on the whole community. That applies just as much when the community involved is the gay community as it does when it is a religious community. (And vice versa, of course.) And it is inevitable that it will get used as ammunition by people who for other reasons are hostile.

There is a big difference between these two examples. The Catholic Church, as an organization, conspired to keep known pedophiles from being prosecuted. LOTS of bishops and cardinals were knowingly complicit in protecting the perverts. That's why many of us think this reflects badly on the whole organization. The mainstream gay organizations, on the other hand, find child rape as abhorrent as the rest of us.

I'm amazed that any child raper would be so stupid as to belong to an organization that promotes child rape. I'm shocked that he wasn't caught a long time ago. Maybe the police up there in Scotland are as stupid as the perverts.

NOPE! The following is what you said:-

""Isn't it strange that we have had no comment on this

I see no reference to the children, no reference to sympathy, in fact, no reference to abuse except indirectly.

The single reference is to fictional "resident promoters of homosexuality."

You throw out argumentative comment with the firm intention of provoking exactly the response you get. You would have NO hesitation in naming another who did that as a troll, so what else would YOU call yourself?

Ebbie:Leaven of Herod or Herodians > Mar 8:15 And he charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and of the leaven of Herod.

Mar 12:13 And they send unto him certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, to catch him in his words.

Matthew 22:15-16 Then went the Pharisees, and took counsel how they might entangle him in his talk. 16. And they sent out unto him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, Master, we know that thou art true, and teachest the way of God in truth, neither carest thou for any man: for thou regardest not the person of men.

Mat 22:18 But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, Why tempt ye me, ye hypocrites?

Herod was descended from a family of Edomites - his mother was a Samaritan. Appointed by Rome, he was not a Jew but became ruler or king over the Jews, and made religion part of the state. It is reported that many Jews did not accept Herod as the legitimate king, because he was not from the lineage of David, and was appointed by Rome.

You are correct, the line was not Caesar, but Herod, appointed by Caesar, from Rome. It still represents the political hypocrisy, of which I was referring. But, Thank you for pointing that out! I mistakenly quoted the study notes, on the subject...but not the meaning.

GfS, 'tis said that "Even the Devil quotes Scripture."

I have yet to find a bigot who wasn't able to quote vast quantities of the Bible to support his or her position. Invariably, however, the Scripture they chose to quote is taken out of context and combined with other verses, also taken out of context, in a convoluted effort to try to make the Bible appear to support some totally outrageous idea that is not remotely endorsed by Judaism and/or Christianity. Everything from Millenialists and Rapture nuts to serial killers to hate-mongers. And bigots. Especially bigots.

Also, knowing the history of how the Bible was put together in the first place, then edited and fiddled with by bishops, abbeys, and scribes, I know that one is on very thin ice when on tries to claim that the Bible is "the inerrant word of God." Obviously, therefore, I am not a Fundamentalist.

Don't try to get into a religious argument with me, GfS. I'm one of the few people who have actually read the Bible all the way through, not just hopping from verse to disconnected verse like a frog with the hiccups. And if it's something I'm not sure about, I can telephone any or all of six Lutheran pastors, a couple of Baptists, a Methodist, a couple of Episcopalians, and a Catholic priest and ask. When someone is trying to con me, I know it.

Don Firth

P. S. Also, I recognize Ake's feeble attempt to repeat the canard that all homosexuals are pedophiles. This is a favorite bit of misinformation that homophobes have either bought themselves in their self-chosen ignorance, or even knowing that it's not the case, are trying to get others to believe. Not to mention your particular hobby-horse from previous threads that same-sex orientation is a matter of choice (long since disproved) rather that an inborn predisposition.

I also know why you have a vested interest in that position.

, but many of the posts contain no expression of sympathy for the abused children or their families

I quote your OP in its entirety:

Isn't it strange that we have had no comment on this
      from our resident promoters of homosexuality!


Full of sympathy for the children and thgeir families. And still no explkanation of why you are so opposed to male homosexual paedophilia, while ignoring the (possibly more common) heterosexual and (possibly less common) female homosexual varieties.

I recognize Ake's feeble attempt to repeat the canard that all homosexuals are pedophiles.

Has he ever actually asserted that?

Yes, Kevin, in the previous thread about California's Proposition 8. A bit of a confession, in fact, and one that he/she probably wishes he/she hadn't made, because it reveals a great deal about why he/she insists on holding that position.

Has to do with fear that the recently discovered evidence that sexual orientation may be a genetic predisposition rather than a matter of free choice is true. Lots of supporting evidence that GfS vociferously denies. On the basis of one of GfS's posts on that thread, I have a pretty good idea why.

Sorry, Kevin, I misread your post. Ake rather than GfS (but what I said regarding GfS's motivation still holds).

Ake's implication that all homosexuals are pedophiles is inherent in his original post. The very fact that he chose to post that story and try to use it to attack "our resident promoters of homosexuality" says so eloguently.

Clear as crystal.

"Clear as crystal" is another of those treacherous metaphors, because the view one sees through crystal,is often very far from clear.

Which paradoxically may in fact make it an appropriate metaphor in this particular case.

C'mon, Kevin. Picky picky picky.

My meaning is perfectly clear, even if you find the metaphor "treacherous."

I could get quite specific, complete with quotes from former posts on the aforementioned other thread, but I chose not to at the moment.

Kevin, if you don't find Ake's intended meaning perfectly clear, go to the beginning of the thread and read his original post.

"Ake's implication that all homosexuals are pedophiles is inherent in his original post."

I think I would clarify Ake's implication which was that If you leave a gay man with kids long enough and deny him access to other gay men, he will turn to them for release - while a heterosexual man would not do the same thing.

The rationale appears to be that one is either a pervert or not and that as Gays are perverts therefore they would enjoy doing the things other perverts do - and as gays and pedophiles are all perverts therefore child abuse is a natural release for a homosexual.

And all this has been churning round in his head for years, during which time, the thought of two men having sex has frequently upset him.

Personally, I tend not to spend my time thinking about two men having sex.
