“… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.
This is quite possibly the stupidest debate re: homosexuality that's out there.

I'm not forcing myself on you
Tease.

You're making some awfully big assumptions about me there.
I know in my heart of hearts and in my brain of brains that homosexuality's a normal part of life and has no correlation with pedophilia. I read stuff. Credible stuff. Stuff that's unaffiliated with any religious movement. And I know lots of gay people personally. They're just people.
It's quite clear - both acts are horrible. But if one was to prioritize, a Man raping a boy would probably be worse. (shrug). From a mental aspect, both are pretty jacked up; have the potential to REALLY mess up a kid. The 'kicker' is the likelihood of PHYSICAL damage to the boy; it's probably GREATER because the anus was NEVER created to receive such trauma.
If Homosexuals got OUT of the priesthood, the likelihood of a boy getting molested/raped by a priest would drop a LOT. Of course, not that EVERY gay man is a pedophile - I believe it's a percentage for sure however.
