Kayla, putting aside the fact that the motivation for putting these flags up is unknown to any of us, and thus that there is a logical issue with asserting that putting the flag up is motivated out of blatant support for the gay lifestyle, I see something else in your post I'd like to focus on for a moment. It is this line "I think the issue with gays in the church is that people do not know if homosexuality may cause a person to be attracted to young boys". The insinuation that being gay causes people to be attracted to young boys is insidious and false, and to anybody who makes it I would ask this question: does being straight cause grown men and women to be attracted to young girls and young boys respectively?
I would suggest that the answer is no, because sexual orientation (being gay, straight, bisexual or asexual) is not primarily a function of a person's level of adherence to biblical morality, it is primarily a function of biology. And if you disagree, I have simple proof of this: If lack of biblical morality (biblical morality being: we should be straight and anti-homosexual) was a precursory cause of pedophilia, we would see a higher proportion of pederasty among atheists than among the religious, but we don't. We see the opposite. You know why? Because religions tend to ascribe shame to sexuality: priests can't marry, sex before marriage is forbidden, self stimulation is taboo, and sexual education is opposed.
It is utterly unfounded therefore to imply, infer, or state, that pederasty is a common result of homosexuality itself, when most of the pederasty in Western societies has been found among priests, vicars, ministers and clergymen (and don't forget those in positions of political or financial power) unless we could logically assert that most of these pedophiles were gay, which we can't. There is also evidence, on this point, of the opposite being true: a sex research study in the US, carried out by Dr. Carol Jenny, centered on 269 children who were victims of molestation and who could idenityf their attacker. Out of those 269 cases, only two of the attacks were homosexual in nature. Another study carried out by Fruend et al, (1989), where test subjects' penis volumes were measured to gauge sexual arousal, found that homosexual males' responded no more frequently to male children, than heterosexual males did to female children.
Sexual orientation, therefore, cannot rightly be taken as evidence of pedophilic tendencies. What are much more likely to make a person a pedophile are a history of childhood sexual abuse, stunted sexual development, and sexual repression, particularly when these attributes are combined in a person who occupies a position of authority.
You can now stop calling homosexuals pedophiles. Let's move on.
