Nope, that would be a heterosexual act, hence why I said males who sexually assault little boys. Female pedophiles are extremely rare in comparison to male ones though.

Why would we need to be created?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Scripture also says that the gods were created.

Philosophical conclusions about God are so damn confusing. I don't think that God's existence can be proved through philosophy. However, I think the same for the opposite.

Actually Stat,Judaism was not monotheistic until after Exodus. The latest achaeology shows a female deity was still being widely worshipped (by THOUSANDS) in Israel as as late as the seventh century bce.

Are you talking about the Jewish God JHVH ? Yod, Heh, Vau, Heh(with points)
Thought you were a defender of JHSVH. An aspect of the Jewish God.
