Hi Bud, I think you need to be a little more careful with what you're saying. This statement for example: "I think of pedophilia as victimizing those between the ages of 4-13" can be read to mean "it can't be pedophilia if the boy is 3 years old or less". Just a thought. But perhaps you could explain why you draw a boundary between the ages of 13 and 14? What's so different about being 14 that the victimization stops being pedophilia? "I don't see us gaining any ground by re-iterating arguments. I see this website and discussion forum as an attempt to justify pedophilia." Very few people here are actually trying to use the Bible to justify pedophilia (I can't think of 1 example in all the time I've been here). Many are trying to lead a live pleasing to God, and for most that means reserving sex for within marriage. Even so, sexual desire can be a strong emotion. It is here that most of us find the support we need to keep to our ideals. You could try thinking of this board as a sort of "alcoholics anonymous" (hope I haven't offended anybody by saying that, sorry), rather than the Speakeazee you seem to think it is.
