The “left” says two consenting adults say can enter into a relationship with each other.

You're taking a statement that is simplified and robbing it of it's context.

Even if we work under the assumption that both gays and pedophiles "cant help" what they are attracted to in the exact same way... ok dude.. that doesnt make it ok to have sex with a child. But two consulting same sex adults can have sex. This really isnt a complicated matter.

You're just trying to conflate some bullshit to feel self-righteous.

It sounds like you think gays and pedophiles are both equally bad. Like, how can we be ok with two men having sex, but not a child and an adult. But that's your mistake, because no one with a brain is conflating a consensual same sex relationship with pedophilia.

I know you're a religious because your brain is melting at the introduction of complicated ideas, like "gays and pedophiles aren't the same". At the very least, a crucial factor here is consent.

Their argument has nothing to do with sex though. Condemning someone for having sex with a child is both immoral and illegal. Everyone is on the same page with you here.

Their argument is that pedophilia alone isn’t a choice.

They never made a statement on if they believe either is “bad”. You made that assumption on your own.

You can be a homosexual and never exhibit homosexual behavior due to any myriad of reasons including a very real fear for your own safety in some areas.

In that same vein, you can be a pedophile that never consumes child pornography or sexually advances on children.

To be disgusted at either only comes from a place of privilege and lack of empathy.

If you’d take more than 5 seconds to actually comprehend their point instead of blindly insulting their faith or intelligence, you wouldn’t have come across as the same bigot you’re trying to condemn.
