Is Pedophilia a Mental Disorder or a Genetic Condition?

[HisDaughter]

I don't see nothing wrong with being politically incorrect. Thats what most "leftist" call Christians.

Exactly.  Thank you.  I was being facetious by calling it "correct". 

And Brother Jerry, please don't think I was saying "tough" to you in particular.  I meant it more as to anyone in that I'm at an age and place now in my walk but also in my own life that I really don't care what others think about me.  There are only two in my life that I feel the need to impress and that is God and myself.  And I add myself in there because I have to be able to look at myself in the mirror.

Brothers and Sisters,

I'm looking back at 25 years in police work and remembering many young victims. The victims go through a unique and horrible torture that's almost impossible to imagine. To say that this is an evil criminal act that almost destroys the victim is an understatement.

There have been many changes in the law over the last few decades, and they weren't in favor of the victim. We see some things that are thought to be positive, but they don't come close to what we already had 40 years ago. We had harsh and/or lengthy punishments that worked at one time. As a simple example, forcible rape used to involve a death sentence. The main idea should be to stop the evil offender from attacking any more children. The repeat offender rates indicate that the offenders rarely ever stop, regardless of treatment and the time of incarceration. The only answers I know of are life sentences or the death penalty. We spend huge amounts of money and effort with a failed program to stop the offenders. How about the victims? What do we do for the victims?

As I have said before, in the "Thou Shalt Not Kill" thread...
This is the only offense where I feel I'd like to see Capital Punishment carried out.
And I will go out on a limb here and share why I feel so incredibly strong about this:
My mother is a survivor; I'm a survivor; and my daughter is a survivor.

Even knowing that as a Christian, or that most Christians are against Capital Punishment because, "all should have the chance to come to Christ"; in my heart of hearts, I want them dead.
I do not think that God will condemn me for feeling that way.

Hello Grammyluv,

Sister, I could say that I understand completely, but nobody understands completely unless they have been a victim themselves. So, I'll just say that I've tried to understand, and things like this always make me angry. You know what I mean when I ask, "What do we do for the victims?" There are insufficient attempts to help the victims in some places, but most of the resources are used to deal with the offenders. This situation should be reversed, and we should learn how to care for the victims. The rights and needs of the offenders are guaranteed by the system, but what about the victims?

Brothers and Sisters, it's a very sad fact that we many times do a better job with animal cruelty, abuse, and neglect cases than we do when human children are the victims. This is sad and heart-breaking.

Love In Christ,
Tom

1 John 3:1-2 NASB
See how great a love the Father has bestowed on us, that we would be called children of God; and such we are. For this reason the world does not know us, because it did not know Him. Beloved, now we are children of God, and it has not appeared as yet what we will be. We know that when He appears, we will be like Him, because we will see Him just as He is.

PR would say you were having a senior moment, or blonde moment, or just plain moment   And believe me I have had those too.

Believe me I completely agree with you that it is sin and it is flat out wrong.  I am not disagreeing with that at all.  Only pointing out the effects of the "world" classifying the sin.  And I believe that someday sexual deviation will ultimately be classified.   Do not know what it will be classified but it will be. 

And I know you were not saying "tough" to me or anything like that.  I understand where you are coming from on this completely and I agree. 

And I am along with Tom on the other issues as well.
