A prepubescent boy who is the subject of lust by a priest is a "condition" of "Ephebophilia", right? Not Pedophilia?
Except the age "definition" you listed of 12+ doesn't qualify. Wiki, for instance, defines it at age 15 and up.
Then, we can split this down into even sicker and more evil subgroups.
All of it sin. All of it evil.
You want to know what I think of all these fancy classifications, sub classifications, and nuances?
They are a bunch of Horse $h^t.
No what these monsters want to call themselves, they are child molesters. Sexual predators. And God knows their sins.
Those priests are not pedophiles, they are predatory queers! They try to soften and confuse by using big words and terms to hide the obvious truth ... they are predatory queers!
I don't think that the victims feel any different if it's called *ephebophilia* rather than *pedophilia*.
The only reason it is done is to make it seem less bad than it is.
That which we call a rose by any other name.......

Absolutely.
You made a typo: “A prepubescent boy who is the subject of lust by a priest is a “condition” of “Ephebophilia”, right? Not Pedophilia?” It’s post-pubescent and then you’d be correct. My point wasn’t to excuse those who abuse children but to point out the media’s deception in the use of the term pedophile to hide the fact that most of these individuals are gay men praying on defenseless boys and in the case of a Priest are under their control due to the Priests position. It’s statutory or real rape under the color of authority in addition to being a sin. It’s also a violation of their orders.
