A new position paper released by the Family Research Council in Washington has combined results from many scholarly studies and discovered a link between homosexuality and child molestation.
The paper, entitled "Homosexuality and Child Sexual Abuse," was compiled by Dr. Timothy Daily, a senior fellow for Culture Studies at Family Research Council. Peter Sprigg, senior director of Culture Studies, concludes there is a definite link between homosexuality and child molestation. He points out the vast majority of child molesters are male, and one-third of the victims of molestation are young boys.
"You have a tiny percentage of the population -- male homosexuals, less than 3% of the male population -- committing a third of the acts of child sexual abuse," Sprigg says, "and that suggests a much higher prevalence of child sexual abuse among homosexuals than among heterosexuals."
Sprigg reports that homosexual groups are trying to distance themselves from the results of the studies by claiming pedophiles are not "true" homosexuals because homosexuals are not attracted to children. But Sprigg disagrees.
"We found a number of studies that show that that is not the case," he says. "And the other argument they make is that if a person who is an offender has ever engaged in heterosexual behavior -- if they are married, or if they have heterosexual relationships with adult women -- then they cannot be considered a homosexual."
Sprigg says that argument is just another effort to deflect the truth about the homosexual way of life. He says studies indicate homosexuals have a variety of sexual experiences, not just those involving the same gender.
AIDS Stats
Meanwhile, the Office of National AIDS Policy has released information claiming that half of all HIV cases involve boys and men between the ages of 15 and 24. Bob Knight of the Culture and Family Institute says this statistic reveals something many people tend to overlook.

The pro-family advocate says that implication, coupled with the ongoing child sex-abuse scandal in the Catholic Church, could spell trouble for homosexual advocacy. "This is a scandal that may well go outside the Catholic Church and get even larger as it's shown that [some] homosexual men do prey on young boys," he says.
According to Knight, these numbers uncover an aspect of the nature of homosexuality. That is something he believes homosexual advocates do not want revealed to the public because it could create a backlash from those who have supported the homosexual agenda.
After all who, in their right mind, wants something going into the place where [expletive deleted] comes out?

Doesn't that mean that 2/3rds of the victims are female. Ha ha ha ha ha. Nice homobashing that blows up in the homophobes face.
You stepped on it dude. Homosexual men molest young boys at a rate ten times higher than the general population molestors of either sex. Thats a fact, deal with it.
Homophobes is an overworked word in our day. We need to face reality.
He won't
You miss the point entirely. Since 97% of males are hetrosexual, you would expect, all things being equal, that 97% of the victims would be female. What this study purports to show is that since one third of the victims are male, then the 3% of the population of adult males who are homos account for one third (33.3%) of the victims - ie. male homos account for a vastly disproportionate amount of child molestation. The author obviously assumes that female molestation is so rare that its impact on these statistics is negligable; I don't know if that's true or not. But, if you accept his data and assumtions as true, then it paints a picture of male homosexuals as much more likely than their heto counterparts to be child molestors.
Which still means most homosexuals DON'T molest anyone. And it still means 2/3rds of molestations are by HETEROSEXUALS.
Deal with it.
If you accept his data -- then it means MALES are more likely than FEMALES to be molestors. Should we banish MALES then?
More misuse of the definition hmm? I’m pretty sure no one at the FRC has latent tendencies or is in denial, you’ll just have to remain the dolt who doesn’t know any better.
