idk dude if your you’re a pedo so you become a priest theory holds up then whatd urge you to become a priest if you can already fuck and marry whoever u want
The societal hatred of pedos is understandable but mb counterproductive. It’s a horrible crime but the classic response is always “haha just kill em” or “hope they get raped/brutalized in prison!!!” (They do)
Ofc if you try to treat it as a mental illness you risk normalizing it so idk
Some family friends are a couple, former priest and former nun. the priest has a classic story where he talks about the floors in his seminary’s dormitory. One floor was for the super religious, one floor was where all the sports guys hung out and talked baseball, and one floor was for pedos. Hopefully a joke but at the rate these cases occur it might be true
alright how about this… what about other religions?
I know it’s fairly widespread in Orthodox Judaism. Dunno about others
I don’t mean to say incarceration in a brutal prison system, moreso that they’re a group that requires some time away from society. Idk how many of them are out there, and I don’t think they deserve ostracism provided they don’t give in to abusive behavior, but I do think they need some sort of aggressive inpatient group therapy environment to learn how to become trusted members of society.
We might never know, a lot of religions exist in societies that still hold them infallible. The child rape case of that influential Indian guru in 2017 was a big turning point for India
to drop a monsieur dupontism of sorts i dont think we can engineer pedophilia out of society
any collective effort to drive it out is bound to replicate the conditions which give rise to it
idk if i should frame it in commie or primmie terms but im pretty sure this urge stems from alienation and dependancy
which is not to say that jailing or murdering pedos is something we should do away with, not at all
i think those are quite necessary practices for us in society and especially victims but perhaps its worth thinking about why the problem never has gone away
Gonna sound weird here but the estrogen in the water/plastics/etc is making girls go through puberty earlier
alain badious la vraie vie has some interesting points on young girls too but i do think priests have a big love for boys especially
I remember that Richard Dawkins ■■■■■■ excusing a 60something teacher for raping a 12 year old that later killed herself along the lines of "certain races hit womanhood earlier".
I could probably excuse his views bc he's english adn that culture is super receptive towards pedophilia
Uber-rationalism is a hell of a drug
i think saying you have no understanding of pedo urges what so ever is disingenuous at best and super docile at worst
Nothing richard dawkins says is a rational appeal lmao
It’s definitely interesting that men lust after petite legal teens who look exactly like some 12-17 year olds. Iirc “young teen” is like the most searched porn phrase
im sure thats biological to some extent and media ie civ related to some other extent
