We obviously protect our children from pedophiles because a f*ckhead in a robe and reading from an ancient book told us to, not because we love the child and we don't want them hurt or emotionally scarred.

You "protect our children from pedophiles...not because we love the child and we don't want them hurt or emotionally scared"?

That sounds twisted. What other reasons would you protect children if not because we love them?

You don't seem reasonable placing animals on the same level as humans.

In a society that is not hung up on sex as the western world is, I don't see the problem with pedophilia.  It's the twisted idea of sex that our society has that traumatizes people, not the actual act.  If sex is seen as natural, uncoersed and nothing to be ashamed about, pedophilia loses it terrible connotation.

You seem awful hung up on pedophilia.  Hmmmm.  How wrong could it be?  Mary was supposed to be about 12 years old...
