Pedophilia involves sexual relations with minors that's do not have the ability to consent. That is why it is clearly different than homosexuality, which involves two consenting adults.
Yes, both are genetic. Everything about you is determined by your genetics. Just because you can't decide whether you're attracted to minors, doesn't mean it should allowed. Again, minors can't consent.
I thought we already settled this discussion?

Apparently not since you seem to be confused.

This is the second or third time today I've read a post where you call out the other guy for not understanding the topic, or being confused, or whatever....
Do you actually have anything to add or debate here? Tell me what you think I'm confused about... Go for it
-
For one thing you said that you thought we had settled this. Apparently not. If that's what you thought you are confused.

And while you are at it tell me what I said you disagree with.
(if the answer is nothing what are you badgering me about?)

I disagree with you saying I was confused....
For the reason I mentioned, I'm not sure how you can equate pedophilia and homosexuality in that way. Using it as a scare tactic to say "if one is legal, then the other has to be too! They're both born like that!" is flawed reasoning.

That's not the point at all. You really are confused.
The flawed reasoning is thinking that because someone is born a particular way should carry a classification of right or wrong or normal.
Society determines the right and wrong.

I don't care what's "normal". I'm 6'4", that's not normal. It's genetic though.
Anyone making the argument "gay marriage should be illegal because its abnormal" is making a terrible argument.
Likewise, saying "being gay is normal, so it should be legal" also isn't much of any argument.

Actually it probably is normal woody. I'd say anywhere from 4 feet up to seven feet is within the range of normal. Not normal might be being born without arms or legs or with a cleft palate or Siamese twins.I don't care what's "normal". I'm 6'4", that's not normal. It's genetic though.

But yes that example would be a terrible reason to argue against gay marriage. The morality of gay marriage is decided by society. and though we only have polling data it seems like most people don't care.

I guess it depends on your definition of normal. There are a higher percentage of gays in the world than men 6'4" or taller

I understand where you are coming from, faith does not make sense sometimes. One of our best friends is a gay woman who we treat like family. She knows we can never approve of her lifestyle. We just try and set a good example for her by how we live.

I'm 6'4" so if at least two people in this limited scale are that height it's not exactly abnormalI don't care what's "normal". I'm 6'4", that's not normal. It's genetic though.

Ok, but why can't you tolerate it? Why does your faith have to include thinking the gay lifestyle is sin? And does this mean you need to follow everything in the bible word for word?
Don't you think it I a little arrogant to say, by not being gay, you're setting a good example for her?

That's not how statistics works, lol
But, my point is the whole "normal / abnormal" thing is really how you define it. If gay is abnormal, so is 6'4". If 6'4" is normal, so is gay

Listen this is one of the areas where I'm actually quite liberal. I literally do not give the first shit if gay people get married. If their choices aren't hurting you or anyone else leave then alone to do their thing. Abortion is hurting people. Gay marriage is not.

I think she would tell you we set a good example for her even if we cannot approve of her lifestye.

Woody - thank you for that statement. It shows you are reasonable and are allowed to disagree.

Would you expect her to approve of your lifestyle? What exactly is it in the writings of an old book that makes you right and her wrong? Do you realize how much this world has changed in the time between the bible and now? Of course you do. Devil's advocate asks what makes you right and her wrong?

How does abortion hurt people?
