[Moderator Note]

**WardMD** , we allow bumping old threads in General Questions if substantial new factual information is being contributed. Since your post mainly consists of opinions, and this thread is more than a year old, I’m going to close it.

If you wish to debate the attitudes of the “Gay Community” to pedophilia, you may start a new thread in Great Debates.
