Never heard it before. Seems inapt considering how prevalent heterosexual child molestation is. But to the original question, should we shoot them, if by shoot you mean punish I think that any ones who act on their desire must necessarily be punished. They're rapists after all.
Yeah exactly Freddie. As a side note kudos on your posts about Athiesm. I noticed that a bunch of the evangelist non-believers were taking a bead on your position so I shouted out on your page in support of moderation but I think it put my comment down under my real name instead of my moniker.
A clarification. I don't mean to belittle the plight of a non-practicing pedophile. As a gay man I can just barely imagine the wild hell such a person must endure in day-to-day life. Still the difference between the homosexual and the pederast remains, to me, profound. A homosexual who abstains is a eunuch or a monk or a celibate, perhaps under some faiths this is admirable but without faith it's just self-deprivation. To give in to their urges merely makes them human. A pederast who abstains is a human being with or without faith. To give in to their urges makes them a monster.

Well I can't find the stupid study either way. Curse my feeble googling skills... if you have al ink Mike I'd be much obliged.
