Foxy,

I read it but I don't believe it, I think that the death penalty is the only sure cure, but you seem to think that it's OK to prosecute people suffering from of a psychiatric disorder.

How is it that an Australian male having sex with a male 15 year old in a foreign country is a paedophile and charged as such but his friend, not Australian, having sex with the same 15 year old is simply a homosexual because of different ages of consent in different countries?

'"Pedophilia is a psychiatric
disorder..."'

I wonder how the millions who have mental health issues feel about being classified with pedophille's. Hmm!

Oh well I suppose I will be charged for hate crime by calling pedophille gross sin.

As a child I lived in Virgin bush country West of Coffs Harbour and dingoes frequently mauled our young live stock. They were known to hang around persons travelling alone on bush tracks. You had to carry a firearm for protection. I heard many stories of dingoes threatening adults in the bush long before the Chamberlains case. I never believed she was guilty because they do attack children.

Is Mise,

No, Cardinal Pell was convicted not because he
was suffering from a psychiatric disorder but
because he was found guilty of having sexually
abused children. It was the act that was a
crime.

Josephus, please explain how YOU know what was inside the heads of the jurors in both the Chamberlain and Pell cases. If you can't, then you made it up, and you're the dingo.
