Dear ALTRAV,

Thanks for hearing me.

I do appreciate it.

Dear Paul,

The sexual abuse of children by the clergy is horrendous
and intolerable and the failure of the churches to
deal with it effectively has done immeasurable harm to
victims. We can only trust that the recommendations of
the Royal Commission will be followed and that the Vatican
will back these recommendations. The pope needs to take
note as the clerical profession has taken a severe
battering and the respect for the priesthood is, understandably
at an all time low.

leoj,

You really seem obsessed with anal sex. However you need
to realise that people can acquire HIV through intravaginal
sex. That condoms exist. And that education is the key -
especially of young people.
In any case as I stated earlier - start your own thread on
the subject and stop diverting mine.
Thank You.

Now that SSM is legal, the next inequality to be fought for is lowering the age of consent, to decriminalise sex with teenage children.

The new age of consent will probably be 12 years for girls as puberty begins around that time. No need for parent or legal consent at that age to marry. You see; currently under sharia law the marriageable age is 9, but western girls are too young at 9 to marry. The argument will be that they already engage in sex so they should be allowed to marry older men.

To deny this is blatant bigotry, sexphobia, discrimination and inequality, same argument as SSM.

So, Josephus, you think rapists are being unfairly discriminated against and want equality for them? What about their victim's rights?

Good luck selling that one.

AJ Philips,
That is opposite my agenda, but the push by the left; you watch what the new equality agenda will be.

AJ Philips,
You talk about rapists, I talk about consensual marriage laws.

Josephus,

A person as young as 12 is not mentally or emotionally mature enough to give their consent. We are both talking about rape.
