Re: Would you allow your son to go to camp where there were openly gay members? [W:19
There is your original attack on my faith and the way I raise my son. So, take that for what's it worth and your apology is accepted for whatever it is you apologized for.
So, at the very least, a man who molests a boy is bisexual, correct? I'm not trying paint gay people as some sort of big scary monster that we should all be afraid of. That's not my point. My point is that we need to get through this PC crap of not all men that molest boys are gay. If someone has sex or sexual relations with someone of the same sex as them (no matter the age) and it is their preferred orientation, then doesn't that make a person gay?
My reason for shielding my son from any sort of sin is that it is my job to do so as a Christian parent. This particular question was of keeping my son away from a camp that I know has gay men as counselors. If the poll question had been "Would you allow your teenage son to go to a party where you know drugs are being abused?" I would have said the same thing. Or, if the name of the poll had been "Would you allow your son to go to a movie with curse words in it?" again I would have said no. It's not about just shielding my son from gay people. It's about shielding him from all sin. Being gay is a sin according to my faith, therefore I guard him from it.
if someone molests a child they are a pedofile. the gender of the child is a no real concern, Burke on the pedophile who molests a boy gay, is calling the boy gay. I don't think it's a sexuality question when a child is molested. to validate the attackers violent act is an expression of his sexuality seems to cut against everything.
most men who molest boys, are heterosexual, they have wives or girlfriends, they identify as heterosexual so no they wouldn't be gay. sexuality is based on who your attracted to, not who your victims are.
it is your prerogative what you protect your son from, I don't believe homosexuality is a sin, but you're free to believe that. when kids are involved parents typically know best.
I work with survivors I am a survivor, sexual abuse isn't sex it's an attack. the children I have worked with, took a lot from me from the doctors and from there parents to understand that's sexual abuse isn't sex. boys who are abused by men don't want it to be classified as a sexual act, frankly it isn't, it is an assault using genitals. A man punching a man in the face is as homosexual as a man abusing a boy.
You are thinking that it is about sex.because the manner of abuse has some similarities. A man putting cigarettes out on a boys arm makes neither party gay, even though sometimes that is part of sexual gratification between consenting adults. A man tieing up a boy isn't gay even though that is something that is part of sexual gratification, same with strangling and anything else.
A man raping a boy isn't sex, its rape, just because the acts between the boy and man are similar to continual sex between two gay men doesn't make it sex. rape isn't sex, sex isn't rape.
As far as your boy not being around sin, I will give in here, gay men shouldn't be telling other peoples children that they'er gay. So the gay man around children should respect that, its not stones business but the parent to decide what is or isn't a good opinion to have on gay people.
I would never tell children that I am bisexual or what that means unless they are my own.
