No attempt is made to restrict the age of those attending homosexual events, not even on the Crimestoppers stall at the Cardiff 'Mardi Gras'<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

A pro-paedophilia group and several academics have launched an offensive for the normalization and legalization of paedophilia in America.<\/p>\n

On August 17 of this year, the pro-paedophilia group B4U-ACT<\/a> sponsored an event in Baltimore, USA, attended by researchers, professors, mental health professionals, and “minor-attracted persons” (MAP, a euphemism for “adults who crave sex with children”).<\/p>\n

Chris Banescu, who reported on the event<\/a>, says:
\n‘Referring to Judeo-Christian moral principles and values as “cultural baggage of wrongfulness” and an adult’s desire to sexually molest a child as “normative,” these predators with Ph.D.s are hell-bent on destroying key moral boundaries and critical societal norms that protect innocent children from pathological and dangerous adults.’<\/p>\n

The individuals, who included academics<\/a> from Johns Hopkins University, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Harvard Medical School, and the London School of Economics, consider adult molestation of children not as a sexual perversion but as normal.<\/p>\n

Among the statements made and positions taken at the conference were these:
\n\u2022”We are not required to interfere with or inhibit our child’s sexuality.”
\n\u2022”Children are not inherently unable to consent” to sex with an adult.
\n\u2022An adult’s desire to have sex with children is “normative.”<\/p>\n

Banescu says those present already ‘advocate for the declassification of pedophilia as a mental illness by the American Psychiatric Association (APA).’<\/p>\n

In the early 1970s, Peter Tatchell<\/a>, who contributed to the British paedophile campaigning book ‘Betrayal of Youth’, and other homosexuals, put political pressure on the APA to declassify homosexual attraction as a psychiatric disorder.\u00a0 They brought no evidence, but turned up remorselessly to disrupt meetings and browbeat APA officials until the Association gave in.<\/p>\n

Forty years later, the same slippery slope<\/a> has descended to pressure for the declassification of paedophilia from the APA’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual. After all, Jacob Breslow, Graduate Student in Gender Research at the LSE, in the paper he presented at the Baltimore meeting, said: Allowing for a form of non-diagnosable minor attraction is exciting (and) a step that follows historically and theoretically from the removal of homosexuality (from the DSM) .\u00a0 Abstracts Here<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

These are the early stages, but watch this space.<\/p>\n
