Now we will never know the depth of it, because Sandusky will take "one for the team."

If you speak to these predators, they take great pains to point out that they are NOT ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖ. Don't ask me their thought process. However, many of those in the mental health field do not believe they are either. Primarily because the male survivors of a male predator are young; usually 10-14. This is understood to be a completely different sɛҳuąƖ attraction: attraction to children. A male who is in the above age bracket, being prepubescent, up to pubescent. What this means is that the male survivors are NOT biologically fully grown males, nor are they psychologically mature in themselves or in what is called psycho-sɛҳuąƖ growth.

So this attraction to young children, in this case boys is something that many normal, well adjusted person will in no way be attracted to a child of either gender. A child, folks. You are completely forgetting in this thread that there are plenty of girls that are abused by men and rarely women. So there is no ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖ component on that spectrum.

I do believe that IS a ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖ desire that absolutely runs through with these male predators that go after a male child. However, there are many sɛҳuąƖ predators who care not who their victims are: male OR female, they are not exclusive to just males. A sad example is that my best friend was married to a man who sɛҳuąƖly molested her son, the predators own son--and all of his son's friends as well as girls that were in his son's friend group. Not ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖ by anyone's definition.

Simply do not discount the male predators that go after young girls. Somehow based on what is said it would seem that many are completely negating the other subset of sɛҳuąƖ predators, unwittingly. Let's call a spade a spade- a sɛҳuąƖ perverts who is attracted,  rapes and molests CHILDREN of either gender is completely different that an adult person who has an attraction to the same sex or opposite sex ADULT. I may be stating what is not popular and following the status quo, but this is direct from clinical knowledge and those that I know personally who work with these mutants of society.

Blessings to you all.
 

Quote from: MrsZ

Because he's a terrible coward.  Only a coward would prey on children like he did.  I don't know about the death penalty.  There's something about living with yourself (and thousands of others) in a prison for years that will give someone an incredible amount of time to face the truth of their actions.  Also, much time for repentance.  But I agree, he is a monster.  He has become a monster by his actions and he must pay for his sins.  And he will.  Death penalty or not.  

It's hard to say this, but May God Have Mercy Upon his Soul.    And more, we pray for the recovery and forgiveness for the souls of those who were abused and horribly damaged.  

I'm sorry, I don't see it that way, what time did he give any of them kids to think about being sɛҳuąƖly violated and tainted physically, emotionally and psychologically for the rest of their lives? Besides, believe it or not, some of these sɛҳuąƖ predators do pretty well behind bars and continue to lavish in their depraved, reprobate lifestyles.

I don't want to give this monster one more minute of fresh air than he deserves.

In a country run by men, this child rapist and others like him would soon be on the other end of the sword with a brief moment prior for repentance and forgiveness from God, his victims and their families.

Then off comes his head.

I can assure you the pedophile rate would drop dramatically almost overnight if this course of action were adopted soon for these slime-balls.

And we would save the hearts and minds ( and souls) of thousands of children who would never have to go through an ordeal like this.

This manner of thinking is exactly what God commanded in the Old Testament.

And, we all know, God doesn't change.

It kind of seems to me that degenerates "took over" youth outreach programs decades ago.
