Child Molestation is a Sin!Sexual relations between an adult and a minor :: Re: okRe: ok As Christian's we are called to use discernment in approving human behavior and love all people; however we are not called to love all human behavior. If you are a Christian, which seems apparent by your reference to your youth pastor, then 1 Cor 5 comes into play. As to your youth pastor's response to your request for help, pastors are people who do not always stop to consider the results of their initial reactions to the issues their flocks deal with. Your enjoyment of what Amator Puellularum posted and our reactions is a symptom of your own dysfunction. As I stated in one of my reply's on this thread some posts are beneath contempt and don't deserve a response. Boy lovers are like gay's they love to appeal to ancient history and Greek and Roman traditions, but only to the extent it proves their position. For instance Sparta artificially separated the sexes at age 7. All boys were sent to military training schools and were not allowed access to female companionship. At age 14 they were assigned an older mentor usually under the age of 24 who continued their combat training. At age 30 these men were assigned a wife and were required to father children. However, they were required to sneak out of their barracks to consummate the marriage and sneak back into the barracks. If they were caught they were severely disciplined. The only outlet Spartan males had for intimacy was with other males so homosexual relationships that did develop were the result of an expression of human emotional needs. In Athens a man could have his citizenship revoked for engaging in pedophilia. As to the APA’s these organization view as “normal” any human behavior that cannot be “cured” or “managed” by drugs, counseling, or are viewed as anti-social behavior even they don’t accept as “normal” like murder. Counseling is never effective unless the counselee is actively seeking help in overcoming adherent behavior. No counselor is going to be effective when those in counseling are not totally honest with themselves and their counselor and totally committed to overcoming. Bible_Believer, the links found in Amator Puellularum’s posts were left as is since this is a debate, not a lecture forum. People who oppose pedophilia can gain insights into this condition and be better equipped to fight it when they are educated about the twisted and perverse thinking that is at its foundation. If we deleted all links that supported any position that opposes ours how do we benefit or reach those dealing with life dominating sins and Godless beliefs? |
