Redefining ‘pedophilia’ as a ‘sexual orientation’
WDTPRS ^ | 10/28/2013 | Fr. John Zuhlsdorf

Posted on 10/28/2013 11:05:00 AM PDT by markomalley

I have written more than once that a goal of homosexualists includes the elimination of the age of consent.  Goals like this are attained through creeping incrementalism.

I just read this, from the University of Southern California:

Pedophilia Now Classified As A Sexual Orientation

People can classify themselves as heterosexual, homosexual, asexual, metrosexual. There are endless sexual orientations under the sun, and now, pedophilia can be added to the list.
In the fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM V), the American Psychological Association (APA) drew a very distinct line between pedophilia and pedophilic disorder. Pedophilia refers to a sexual orientation or profession of sexual preference devoid of consummation, whereas pedophilic disorder is defined as a compulsion and is used in reference to individuals who act on their sexuality.  [First step, change the language, change definitions.]

APA’s decision has given rise to numerous pedophilia-advocacy groups, the chief of them being B4U-ACT, a non-profit grassroots organization based in Maryland. Created in 2003 primarily as a means for “minor-attracted persons” to be open about their sexual preferences in a supportive atmosphere, B4U-ACT is now widening the scope of their organization.

According to spokesperson and registered sex offender Paul Christiano, the pedophilia-advocacy group is “working towards de-stigmatizing the mental health community.” Christiano explained that negative societal attitudes towards minor-attracted persons “trickle down to policy-making and the mental health community.”

[...]

Read the rest there.

This is dreadful.

Weird. No one on that thread was advocating for pedophilia..

Lurker and I have both been here longer then you. Been right longer too...

“Acts of Capitalism between consenting adults.”

Note the “adult” part and just knock off the calumny.

In a libertarian society, children’s Rights are held in trust by their parents until the age of majority. Anyone trying to violate my child’s rights would be subject to the same penalty as if they tried to violate my rights... Ie; death by my bullet.

In reponse to my posts I was told that the federal government had no right to regulate even 12 year old drug addicted prostitutes.

“No one on that thread was advocating for pedophilia”

They were advocating having no laws against it.

Not a big difference.

Libertopians once in a while throw out the “adult” thing, but they do not mean it.

So, there will be male homosexual male pedophiles, male homosexual female pedophiles, female homosexual female pedophiles and finally female homosexual male pedophiles. There is no such thing as “GAY” in public, court or medical records as there is no such thing as “Lesbians” either in official records (what other kind of records would there be but legal/official) Someone else can identify pedophiles under the “BISEXUAL” flag.

Ping me when that day arrives.

You cannot have honest discussions with people who think drug addicted 12 year hookers is something that should be legal.

Which i have yet to see here.

When they do, then you’ll have a point. But, not until then.

GERONL: I don’t think Jefferson would have liked drug addicted 2 [meant 12] year old prostitutes

ELKFERSUPPER:

I'm sure he didn't like them at all, but he did not think they should be stopped from doing whatever they were doing by government.

Notice we were specifically NOT discussing "consenting adults"

I just heard Mark Levin call these gays he met and a gay man he spoke to on the phone conservatives. This is so bizarre! I can not believe what I heard!

It would seem to me that if dsm or the psyc profession were to categorize pedophilia as an orientation seperate from engaging in the act that many laws would immediately support it without being rewritten. Depending on how orientation is defined in the statutes.

I think these guys are closer to victory than any of us realize.

Keep twisting your red herrings in knots.

Maybe one day you’ll make an honest statement by mistake.

Libertopianism cannot work, it would descend into a violent black hole. It would be the most barbarian social order ever devised.

You mean like 1794?

How awful. All that freedom and no twits like you running around pointing out how bad people are without an omnipresent government to get them to behave...

Between you and me? If there were no government tomorrow... My daily life probably wouldn’t change all that much...

More like Neanderthals than 1794

More like Mad Max than George Washington

Libertopians dream of the day they can sleep with their children and pimp them out too.

Four year old boys will soon be able to marry the 40 year year old men they love!

Is this country great or what!

1794 a country of moral Christian people

Libertopians want a world of people behaving like dogs or Mylie Cyrus

No. That is YOUR opinion and your opinion only.

Reality is something else entirely.
