Church demands the victim apologize to pastor's wife since the pastor did the rape.

Yes, please.

thought you'd never ask...

The double standard is all the people that came out in defense of a certain gay politician having sex with an underage boy. At first everyone played dumb, then they began making excuses.

The irony is it was considered 'slanderous' when HE was referred to as a pedophile...

16 is the age of consent where I am. Bit shaky, but I don't find this particularly objectionable on its own, and certainly not enough to label the guy a pedophile. Seems like classic theistic stretching beyond their means to me.

A statutory rapist under a superfluous law is one thing.  Taking the unreasonable theistic leap of referring to him as a pedophile is something else.

Notice how statutory rape is suddenly a SUPERFLUOUS law when it involves a gay man?

Also some victim blaming.

Note that Milk recorded his age as 18.  It is credible that the boy said he was, and if you look at photographs, he looks all of 18.

He didn't look like a child, so the accusation of pedophilia collapses.

That enough or need I go on?

Uhhh... Pedophilia is defined as the fantasy or act of sexual activity with prepubescent children.
