This is an interesting thought and a great jab at the Christian right. Congrats! Nothing like a little reverse spin to slap people's thinking upside the head!

No. That's the same ridiculous "slippery slope" argument that people used to use about interracial marriage.
Incidentally, it's significant that so many Republicans who write legislation to "protect families" against homosexuality turn out not only to be gay, but ALSO pedophiles - probably because they assume that kids will be easier to manipulate and keep quiet. It doesn't reflect on homosexuals as a class - rather it reflects badly on people who think repression and denial is the way to go.

No. Homosexual is being attracted to someone of the same sex (who is in the same age range).
Pedophilia is the desire to inflict sexual dominance on someone you KNOW is too young to "enjoy" or even "understand" any sexual act.
Pedophiles can and DO assault children regardless of whether that child is the same sex or not.

I think that is a wrong assumption. Most gays I do not think do that therefore a blank sheet staement is wrong. Iwould warn them that would truly anger God if they did that as He is very defined what will happen to even the least of his children. i.e. new christians and children. It is better that a millstone be hung around their neck and they be cast into the ocean. Take it for waht it is. it is scripture.

The vast majority of pedophyles are grown men going after little girls, so I don't see any relationship between homosexuality and pedophylia.

No, but I think that continuously asking this kind of polarizing question is an indication of severe mental illness and that you need to get professional help.

They are completely unrelated. Most pedophiles identify themselves as heterosexual--and when I say most I mean almost all. The two issues are completely separate.

I don't understand how people confuse being attracted to the same sex with being attracted to children. BIG difference!

No not all pedophiles are homosexuals. Look at how many twisted fathers abuse their daughters.

Yep. I got so much proof it'll blow your head. Child Molesters are gay too.
