I'm aware of verses which encourage stoning disobedient children but I'm not aware of anything in the Bible which condones pedophilia.

from numbers 31:14
Quote:14 And Moses was wroth with the officers of the host, [with] the captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, which came from the battle.
15 And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive?
16 Behold, these caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to commit trespass against the LORD in the matter of Peor, and there was a plague among the congregation of the LORD.
17 Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him.
18 But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.
Nice.
This pretty much proves the point of why I think its dubious that any Christian, Jew or Muslim should be any position of government. If they're going to say a book that professes such is the Word of God and the highest moral authority.
