Pedophilia witch hunt discussed by academia and press
Posted by Devils Advocate in Child Porn Witch Hunt, Science, Teenage Sexuality on
- First a story about a toddler that had to die because a man was afraid to help, due to the pedophilia hysteria.
An extreme defense of pedophilia
- Then Professor Harris Mirkin’s thesis that criminalization of “pedophilia” is like gay criminalization and psychiatrization of homosexuality 50 years ago and that childrens’ right to sexuality should eventually win.
- Judith Levine’s book, Harmful to Minors: The Perils of Protecting Children from Sex
- Alfred Kinsey a pedophile? He observed orgasms of children and adolescents during his University Research.
- More unbiased academic discussions about pedophilia
- And of course there is our prior article about persecution of academic research in the case of the Rind Study
There was one small detail that jumped out at me in the tragic story of Abigail Rae, the two-year-old who wandered off from her village playgroup and ended up dying in a garden pond. Tucked away at the end of yesterday’s inquest report was a line about how Clive Peachey, a bricklayer, drove past a child on her own, whom he later concluded had been Abby.
She was not walking straight, she was tottering, said Mr Peachey. “I kept thinking should I go back? One of the reasons I did not go back is because I thought someone would see me and think I was trying to abduct her.”
The hysteria over paedophilia hangs like some dark cloud over almost every interaction nowadays between a man and a child that isn’t his.
Professor Mirkin got himself into deep trouble defending that consensual sex with an adolescent is not the same as raping the same adolescent. Similar to a Dutch law, Professor Mirkin contends that the age of consent should be 12 years, as long as the adolescent’s consent can be proven.

Conservative and Religious Hypocrites are biggest Porn Consumers in USA
Posted by admin in Self Deception on
Peer reviewed scientific journals report:
Eight of the top 10 pornography consuming states gave their electoral votes to John McCain in last year’s presidential election. Florida and Hawaii were the exceptions. While six out of the lowest 10 favoured Barack Obama. [...]
States where a majority of residents agreed with the statement “I have old-fashioned values about family and marriage,” bought 3.6 more subscriptions per thousand people than states where a majority disagreed. A similar difference emerged for the statement “AIDS might be God’s punishment for immoral sexual behaviour.”

Richard Dawkins debunks Creationism. “The purpose of purpose”
Posted by admin in Evolution & Darwinian Science, Intelligent Design (Creationism) on
“Intelligent design” or “scientific” creationism are buzzwords created by religious fundamentalists, with the agenda to put content of 2000 year old religious books into our children’s school science curriculum.
Dawkins just takes apart all the religous arguments, shreds them into pieces. Watch the video “the purpose of purpose”.

Peter Singer – The Genius of Darwin: The Uncut Interviews – Richard Dawkins (Video)
Posted by Against Irrational Unconscious in Evolutionary Psychology, Religion & Atheism on
pretty shocking topics: from animal rights not to be eaten and slaughtered to “abortion” rights until after birth, mercy killings of babies that get born severely damages.
Singer thinks topics to the end. His main philosopy is minimizing suffering, creating the maximum of happiness. So there is a consistency in his thoughts that one should not kill poor cows, but severely crippled infants should be killed out of mercy.
