That's fine. The poster could have specified this. All this poster did was tell me how horrible it was to ever say that someone shouldn't act on their sexual impulses. I brought up pedophilia as an example of a scenario where I'm sure everyone here would agree that it would be appropriate to say someone shouldn't act on sexual impulses.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
