* Law enforcement officials confirm these findings based on their prosecution of sex crimes against women and children. They report that pornography is a major motivating factor in the crime of rape and a startling 100 percent correlation between cases of child sexual abuse and the child molesters’ use of adult-oriented or child pornography.

That is either a lie or the writer doesn't understand the meaning of 100 percent correlation. If it were, then everyone who ever watched pornography would have molested a child. It would be a perfect predictor, and it is not.

Liberty, what law enforcement officials say — for example, the Ottawa County Sheriff in the Holland Sentinel (here in Michigan) and most recently, a prosecutor with the U.S. Dept of Justice in a mtg of pro-family activists in D.C. — is that in every case of child sexual abuse they prosecute, the offender was in possession of either adult or child porn.

Every case = 100 percent.

Now I’m giving you the benefit of the doubt that you simply overlooked the reverse correlation, with enough generosity not to call you a liar just because you did.
