I have neve heard that word in my entire life. What does it mean. I am 25 years old a single male, but I have never heard of this word until a few nights ago. I am a Christian & I go to church. Why are people people refering to guys like that when they don't even know them?

Pedophilia, paedophilia, or pædophilia (see spelling differences), is the paraphilia of being sexually attracted primarily or exclusively to pre-pubescent children. Persons with this attraction are called pedophiles.
In the United States and some other countries, the term pedophile is frequently used also to denote significantly older adults who are sexually attracted to adolescents[1], as well as those who have sexually abused a child. In countries where the legal age of consent is lower, like France or Brazil, the mainstream media avoid using the terms pedophilia or pedophile to refer to consented relationships between adults and adolescents.[citation needed]
Some scientists refer to a sexual interest in adolescents as ephebophilia[2] or hebephilia
