Don’t misunderstand me, because I didn’t say there was nothing appealing about young girls. What I said was that intellectually there is nothing to be gained by a relationship. The most you could gain stacked up against the most you and everyone involved would lose, just wouldn’t be worth it. It’s a lose lose lose lose lose situation.

There is that rare enticing kid who will be very enticing through no fault of their own. It doesn’t matter. As an adult, the adult needs to think it through and avoid this sort of situation.

This is in no way meant to imply that I think some young girls ask for it. In nearly all instances they don’t, and even if they did, it makes no difference. There’s no excuse for not using your head and avoiding this. Same for women when confronted with young underage boys.

These teachers that get involved, it’s a massive mistake. No amount of short term fun is going to be worth the massive disruption in everyone’s life when it’s over. And it will be over.

Do not and will not in a million years understand what is sexually appealing about children. Never.

I now live in Ormoc City, Leyte, Philippines. The women here are beautiful, and even the little girls are visually appealing. I have a very nice "country girl" as my housekeeper. She is 17. She is a beauty. I am 65. I would never think of her as a sexual conquest. I have granddaughters about her age.

That said, I see many of the "foreigners" here that have chosen the "waif" type as their "girlfriends". I use all those italics because I think it is explanative of the mindset of a pervert.

Every where I go, I get asked if I have a girlfriend, and many of those asking are verrrrrrrrrry young girls. They hope to snag a meal ticket, as this country is poor. I am here for life, and may take a Filipina wife in the future. But, I attend a Baptist church every week. I have been asked by the Pastor if I want a wife, and he will help me find a Godly" woman. I always thank him, but tell him I am not looking. If "love" catches up with me again, it will a natural progression.

Man is sinful. Catholic priests are not immune from a sinful life. Many are weak, and believe they cannot help themselves. That is the key, to me. Faith! God is real to me, unlike to most RC's. They are led by a "church", by men. They are fed a catechism from youth, that does not help them learn from God's Spirit, but instead places a human Pope as the authority of EVERYTHING to do with Salvation, and puts God's earthly mother in a place of redemptress, on par with Christ. Error begets error, and it is compounded by beliefs that say you can sin, be forgiven, and sin again, and that dead people can be prayed out of "purgatory".

life is good here. Life is good everywhere when we acknowledge God and allow His Spirit to control our minds and actions.

I am a sinner. God has saved me from my past and protects me from my future. "I know in whom I have believed and am persuaded that HE is able to keep me..." Yet, I am still a sinner, just as Paul teaches us in his letter to the Romans (Ch 7). I choose to ignore the temptations...
