Pedophilia has nothing to do with celibacy. Rape has nothing to do with celibacy. You cannot make those comparisons. It's like saying homosexuals are pedophiles.
Pedophilia is NOT about lack of sex or marriage. It is far more complicated. Most pedophiles were sexually abused as children.....and many of them abused by pedophile priests and pastors. It is a viscous circle that cannot be stopped by framing the argument around celibacy.
Celibacy and pedophilia are not in any way related.

yeah, you're right and i didn't mean to couch it like that. sorry. can i have popcorn?
i DO think that asking adults to live their entire live as asexual beings is downright nuts though.
somewhere in my brain there is a connection to what happens with these priests and the way that the catholic church makes sex a shameful thing.
(masturbation will make you blind or grow hair on your palms were a few things nuns told us)
i am a recovering catholic and my name is adelita.
