Oh no, how will I cope knowing someone doesn't agree with me on a topic I don't really care much about?

[fckvwls]

Perhaps. Or people with high sex drives shouldn't join the priesthood.

People whose will is not stronger than their sex-drives shouldn't join... temptation is acceptable, giving in to it is not.

Well done OH for showing a spectacular lack of understanding. Do you think most of the men who have sex in prison are gay? There is a massive difference between someone becoming a priest because they want to abuse children, and a priest finding that the frustration of celibacy pushes their desires into more peverted places. You only have to think back to when you were a teenager to know this is the case.



It must really suck to be a pedophile, if we view it as another manifestation of sexuality like hetero/homo.

I don't know. Maybe all the pedo priests genuinely joined up simply to molest children but that seems a bit too torturous a plan. It seems weird that tough macho men in prison who would have found the concept disgusting outside, like getting it on together.

From a religious angle, priests are also going to be special targets for temptation from the Devil of course.

Or perhaps being in close proximity to children even develops such tendencies that are not really known before hand.

As I think you genuinely hold these views and are not trolling I can only conclude you are one fukked up individual.

In prison, it's a case of 'any port in a storm' i.e. any sex is better than no sex. It's probably also about power/dominance etc. If prisons were mixed, I'm guessing there would be less gay sex.

Good point. In prison there is almost no gay sex except between homosexuals. All this talk about bubba is just nonsense. The stuff of novels.

Early Buddhists had to introduce a law not to have sex with animals. Probably because they couldn't have regular sex with humans..

I think it's a "thou shalt not" issue across any institution that enforces such restrictions. Natural urges probably took over and the nearest alternative fitted the bill - be it choirboys or sheep..

I also believe that said instiutions should have dealt with it better - and dare I say not cause the problem in the fist place by instilling guilt and shame on a natural act that as animals we can do nothing about.

If children were the only option available to priests, then that argument might hold some weight, but a priest has the same range of opportunity as anyone else, including the option to pay for it.

There is of course a third option -
Men who fancy children and are disgusted with themselves are more likely join the priesthood specifically because it is somewhere that sex is forbidden so they see it as a safe haven.

Do you really think this? It seems a very strange argument to me. A normal man starts fancying children when deprived of sex?

With regards to the lawyers involved in both sides of this, they probably met up in private, worked out between them how much they'd make from the case and took it from there. In fact they probably added that meeting to the bill the cheeky bastards.

Looks like the Judge gave 'em a smartening.

OH has a working knowledge of everything; at least, in his opinion, for what that's worth.

Common sense = the ignorance of the masses.

In his opinion, it's worth quite a lot.

Ah, you're an armchair expert on women and psychology as well as religion and sexuality.

Nah, it's common sense for most people mate

[d000hg]

Oh dear, you really haven't got a clue have you. Possiblly one of the most powerful people in the community, absolutely out of reach, supposedly. He'd make women hornier than most known aphrodisiacs

I am so pleased I never got any worse than gimp masks.

What about your Batman outfit and handcuffs - don't tell me it was just for F4J

[Old Hack]

Yes of course, a priest has his pick of the congregation. All the women love a man of the cloth.
