Another leftist pushes the envelope to normalize pedophilia
American Thinker ^ | 13 Aug, 2022 | John M. Contino

Posted on 08/13/2022 5:10:20 AM PDT by MtnClimber

Miranda Galbreath is a licensed professional counselor for the Pennsylvania Department of Corrections. In a two-minute video, she makes her case for regarding what she refers to as Minor-Attracted People (MAP) as the most vilified group of people in our society. She maintains that these harmful views are a result of our incorrect (read: ignorant) assumptions about pedophilia, which is a term that should be banished for all its pejorative connotations.

Ms. Galbreath goes so far as to say that pedophilia has moved from being a diagnostic label to a hurtful, judgmental insult. Really? Where does she think the word comes from? "Pedo," or the British "paedo," comes from the Greek "paidos," or "child," plus "philos," which is Greek for "loving." Socrates was given hemlock for "corrupting" young boys, and Jesus famously said, "It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck and he were thrown into the sea than for him to cause one of these little ones to sin." How does one say "pedophile" in Aramaic?

Ms. Galbreath says we all have many different parts of ourselves, including those who harbor sexual or romantic attractions to minors. Are there not Murder-Attracted and Mayhem-Attracted MAPs out there, some of whom must certainly possess some redeeming qualities? Why should we penalize psychopaths who act out their urges?

No how distasteful it will be, I will vote for 0z (and Mastriano) in November.

To keep deviants like this (and worse) out of Pennsylvania politics.

What might one surmise about Miranda’s predilections?

Well they've already normalized infanticide. Aren't they trying to normalize cannibalism too?

I would argue that the most vilified and hated group of individuals in this society are the “expert” group of psychologists and other progessive society advocates. Pedophiles, drag queens, groomers? We can take care of all them ourselves on a case by case basis administrating justice through the use of vigilance commitees. It’s long past time for this.

"pedophilia, which is a term that should be banished for all its pejorative connotations"

A little off subject, but sexual libertarians have no problem pejoratively labeling all who do not approve of homosexual relations or homosexuality as "homophobic" as if suffering from an irrational fear. A phobia is a type of anxiety disorder. It is a strong, irrational fear of something that poses little or no real danger.. - Phobias | Home | MentalHealth.gov; "A phobia is an overwhelming and debilitating fear of an object, place, situation, feeling or animal." (The NHS website; Overview - Phobias) a "phobia is a type of anxiety disorder defined by a persistent and excessive fear of an object or situation...Those affected will go to great lengths to avoid the situation or object, to a degree greater than the actual danger posed. If the object or situation cannot be avoided, they experience significant distress." (Phobia - Wikipedia

God made man and women distinctively different yet uniquely compatible and complementary, and only joined them together in marriage - as the Lord Jesus Himself specified, (Mt. 19:4–6) and Scripture only condemns homosexual relations wherever they are manifestly dealt with (extensive examination of prohomosexual polemics with refutations, by the grace of God).

And which have been tragically primarily responsible for approx. over 700,000 American deaths (although such is not even the decisive reason why homosexual relations are wrong). If a consensual religious practice - lets say the Lord's supper - was shown to be responsible for 81% of new HIV cases aged 13 and older among men - - despite only representing approximately 4% of the male population - and 92% of new HIV among male youth, and (historically) a greatly increased incidence of other infectious diseases and premature death, and despite decades of attempting to tame it into being "safe," - at significant y taxpayer expense - then it would be treated as the plague.

Another loon with a pen (or a keyboard).
These people are so full of themselves, wanting to be sooo “compassionate”and “understanding” towards the “misunderstood” in our society that they end up creating more harm than good.
And why? So THEY can make themselves think they are doing something valuable, making themselves feel good- I remember in the ‘70s one of the operative liberal phrases was “If it feels good, do it!”
It is all about making themselves feel valuable IN THEIR OWN EYES, with no regard for the destruction they are causing.

Add the fascist element that they wield in their positions of power in government and the media and the schools, and here we are.
Damn them all.

When will they get to change the “+” in LGBTQ+ to a “P”?

I have used the word regressive when posting about progressives So if you post about LGBTQP, use it with pride.
