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.
Please answer my question now, which you have ducked several times:
How old was the adult male who "helped" you to "discover" your "true sexual identity" when you were a boy?
Things from the Bible are things that Bible believers believe in. Some of us don't accept the Bible as anything other than the thoughs of some ancient goat herders. So no, you won't convince much based upon that appeal.
That's pretty funny coming from a group of people who turn everything into rants against Satan -- such as evolution, homosexuality, immigration, abortion, all other religions (or lack thereof), women voting, pool halls and dancing.
You just want a monopoly on religious pronuncements. Well, get used to being disappointed.
Actually that is the definition of anarchy.
I find it amusing that atheists think they can argue logic. Part of arguing logic is being able to understand the point of what someone wrote. Not once did I use the Past or Present to justify anything, I was making a point about settled law and showing that homosexuals such as yourself are wrong when they try to establish a protection under law for their behavior.
My point was spelled out in case law, that Homosexuality is not a right protected by the Constitution, and I was making a point that this is not new law, but is law that extends back some time in history.
So it is you who is trying to change the subject in order to look smarter than you really are.
That Homosexuality and drug use is really getting to your brain.
Why do you keep lying in the name of Christ? What is it with Christians and their belief that they can lie for Christ?
And by the way, I am still waiting:
How old was the adult male who "helped" you to "discover" your "true sexual identity" when you were a boy?
What do you think this accomplishes for your evangelicalism? What do you think this accomplishes for your soul?
If you are not, say so.
Why do you refuse to answer the question.
Changing the subject doesn't change the facts.
You never deny that you are a homosexual. What I am to believe then?????
