The publisher describes the booklet as ‘a pocket-sized flip book that graphically models condom use between two men.’ But they are not ‘two men.’ They are a man and a teen. As such, the graphic booklet overtly suggests male homosexual pederasty. (LifeSiteNews) — Materials given to students to take home by a high school in Canada as part of a sex-ed program look less like they’re intended for educational purposes and more like a brazen attempt to groom vulnerable teen boys for sex with older males. Student mom Janine Stephanie Penner reported on Facebook that “My grade 10 son was...

'Milk’s taste in men veered toward boys.' The media is ‘mediaing’ again and confusing its leftist culture war beliefs with actual facts. Temecula school board president calls Harvey Milk ‘pedophile’ before book banning vote – CBS LA An ugly scene played out at the Temecula Valley School Board meeting as they voted 3-2 to reject an elementary school social studies book that contained information about pioneering California gay rights figure Harvey Milk. The board’s president made a baseless accusation that Milk was a pedophile before voting to ban the book. “My question is, why even mention a pedophile?” said Board...

LONGUEUIL, Que. — Quebec actor Edgar Fruitier faces two charges of indecent assault against a minor in connection with alleged events dating back to the 1970s. The 88-year-old actor’s arrest was first reported by the Montreal-area newspaper Le Courrier du Sud. Police in Longueuil, on Montreal’s South Shore, confirm they arrested a person matching Fruitier’s age in connection with two counts of indecent assault against a victim who was 15 years old when the alleged assaults began. An arrest warrant issued July 12 says Fruitier was wanted for allegedly committing indecent assault against a male victim between June 1 and...

As scientists, we are concerned about recent discussions regarding clergy sexual abuse. Numerous authors, like a recent Chilean post by Riccardo Cascioli (February 8, 2018), seem to believe there is a significant difference between ‘pedophiles’ and homosexuals. Indeed, Riccardo Cascioli re-makes a point often made: “the so-called ‘pedophilia cases’ are actually an overwhelming majority of incidents of homosexuality”[1] where pedophilia properly refers to the attraction of adults for pre-pubescent children. When such attraction is directed towards teenagers, one must instead speak of ephebophilia which is initiated by homosexual persons. This is what we are talking about in Chile, but it...

In January, Rush Limbaugh warned that there was “an effort under way to normalize pedophilia,” and was ridiculed by liberals (including CNN’s Soledad O’Brien) for saying so. But now liberals have joined a crusade that, if successful, would effectively legalize sex with 14-year-olds in Florida. The case involves Kaitlyn Ashley Hunt, an 18-year-old in Sebastian, Florida, who was arrested in February after admitting that she had a lesbian affair with a 14-year high-school freshman. (Click here to read the affidavit in Hunt’s arrest.) It is a felony in Florida to have sex with 14-year-olds. Hunt was expelled from Sebastian High...

Officials in Simi Valley say a 52-year-old man — dressed up as a woman — to hit up a 15-year-old boy for sex. More surprising, police said they didn’t know they had a man under arrest until they took the suspect in for questioning. The man allegedly approached the boy in the parking lot of a strip mall in the 2400 block of Sycamore where police say the alleged act occurred.

A former local Scout leader was sentenced to eight years in prison this afternoon for sexually assaulting three scouts. Provincial court Judge Ray Wyant said Stuart Garret Young’s actions were "reprehensible, degrading and disgusting and abhorrent." Court was told that Young, 40, was trusted and admired by the boys, and that he singled them out, grooming them to become his victims. Young had been a volunteer with a Southdale Scout troop. The boys were subjected to a program Young had developed that they were told was to build up their self-confidence but instead the boys were "brainwashed" while Young subjected...

August 31, 2011 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Many Americans have been shocked by reports about a recent pro-pedophilia conference in Baltimore in which psychiatrists and other mental health professionals, representing institutions like Harvard and Johns Hopkins, sought to present pedophilia in a sympathetic and even positive light. But why should this surprise us? Academic articles in scholarly journals have been presenting pedophilia in a sympathetic light for years, and, as Matthew Cullinan Hoffman noted, the American Psychiatric Association (APA) released a report in 1998 “claiming that the ‘negative potential’ of adult sex with children was ‘overstated’ and that ‘the vast majority of...

Many homosexual leaders have admitted that there is a natural link between a homosexual orientation and child sexual abuse. Child Molestation by homosexuals and heterosexuals By Brian W. Clowes and David L. Sonnier The Church has always had a small number of priests and other religious who have taken advantage of their positions of authority and influence in order to gain sexual favors or to take advantage of the helpless. The problem of clerical child sexual molestation, particularly in the United States, has been widely exposed and publicized over the last several years. The numerous recent revelations have exposed the...

U.S. troops in Afghanistan are having a hard time understanding what is a strange Afghan cultural practice to them. The practice can be summed up in the ages old Afghan phrase, "women are for children, boys are for pleasure." Yes, that phrase means what you think it means. It has been well known for a long time that some parts of Afghanistan have an odd sexual practice ensconced in its culture. Men have sex for pleasure with boys often eschewing women. Sometimes these men even claim to be disgusted by the idea of sex for pleasure with a woman. Yet...

Just heard on the radio, Warren Jeffs was sentenced to two consecutive life terms. Nothing further.

CHICAGO — A prominent Chicago bishop is suggesting legal changes that would shield Roman Catholic institutions from paying excessive damages in sex-abuse lawsuits, which he says jeopardize the mission of the church. Auxiliary Bishop Thomas Paprocki, a civil and canon lawyer, recently suggested in a homily to Catholic lawyers and judges that decisions to award large sums to victims of clergy abuse place an excessive burden on the free exercise of religion for American Catholics. "This burden needs to be lifted," Paprocki said during a special Mass for judges and attorneys in Grand Rapids, Mich., last month. "The settlement or...

The Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Los Angeles is close to a historic multimillion-dollar settlement that is expected to total at least $500million but could range even higher for hundreds of victims of clergy abuse. In what would be the largest payout in the church's sexual-abuse scandal, sources close to the archdiocese said Saturday that terms of a settlement were being worked out this weekend. The news came just two days before the first of more than 500 clergy abuse cases is scheduled for jury selection Monday. The Associated Press reported Saturday that the archdiocese and its insurers are set to...

Girls of 12 were questioned about their sexual preferences by lottery-funded researchers, it has emerged. Participants were encouraged to discuss their favourite sex acts and positions as part of a £242,000 study. The initiative, financed by the Big Lottery Fund, was aimed at exploring young women's attitudes to safe sex. But the project has come under fire for involving girls up to four years below the legal age of consent. Campaigners hit out at "crude" exercises which involved asking participants to create posters describing "What I do and don't like about sex". They also questioned the use of National Lottery...

Goose Creek — Westview Middle School's Teacher of the Year has been arrested by North Charleston and Goose Creek police on charges she had a sexual relationship with a female student under 16.

TOKYO (Reuters) - A Japanese Buddhist priest who was arrested on suspicion of having paid sex with a teenage girl said he was under stress and had given in to lust. Itsushi Ehara, 73, chief priest at a temple in the western Japanese prefecture of Hiroshima and also head of a nursery school, paid the 15-year-old girl 80,000 yen ($675) to have sex in a hotel in downtown Tokyo, a police spokesman said on Friday. "I could not resist my lust. A lot of stress built up from running the school," Ehara was quoted by Kyodo news agency as telling...

Lay Off the Boy Scouts !! I’ve had it with the vicious attacks on the Boy Scouts of America ! I’ve seen them called “ a Brownshirt Taliban” , “KKK for Kiddies”, and worse ! The main bone of contention seems to be that the organization uses its free association rights (upheld by the Supreme Court) to screen out potential Boy Scout leaders who are openly gay : a precaution most parents whole-heartedly endorse. “This is discrimination !” , the protestors howl. “ There is no scientific evidence that gays are more likely to be pedophiles than heterosexuals are.” I’ve...

The current crisis of sexual abuse by priests has shaken the self confidence of the American Catholic Church. The role of the complicity of and cover up by the bishops is significant, but the essential problem in about 90 percent of cases appears to be sexual abuse of adolescent males by priests. This is, by definition, homosexual behavior and is technically called ephebophilia. While priestly sexual abuse of this sort has always occurred, its incidence seems to have increased in the 1970s and 1980s. Why is this so? It is the contention of this essay that there were significant changes...
