Your friend tells you they're a paedophile

[rado84]

I did except for the kids. That's kind of the point where you don't ever get to see my kids again. I'm already really picky about who I let around my kids. I have friends who have no contact with my kids already. It's because I choose people based on whether I think they'll be a positive influence in their lives. Some people are fine to be my friends but they just don't make the cut to meet my kids. More, if there's any sign of a potential risk for my kids you're out.

If the pedophile has at least an ounce of brain, neither you or your kid would ever know something happened. And I don't have any kids nor will I ever have, so I don't really care. Like I said, friendship is more important to me than anything else. As for your case, I call this a hypocrisy - when a person is being considered a friend for as long as they fit in the society's idea of right. This is much like the hipocrisy of the rich people - if you're rich, they'll call you a friend for as long as you have money. If one day you bankrupt, you won't exist to them anymore.
But there's no right or wrong in nature. For instance, cats and bitches get to be impregnated when they become 1 year old. If using the famous analogy with humans, 1 doggy year equals 7 human years. Kinda makes one wonder why nobody ever speaks about pedophilia when a dog mates with a 1 year old bitch.
If the person in question likes to fuck something different than what I like, I won't judge them, no matter whether they like to fuck kids, animals, trees, cars, or even corpses. With nearly 7 billion inhabitants of the planet diversity is inevitable. I don't remember who said it but it's true - the bigger a society grows, the more and the stranger personalities will appear.
