I've seen a couple blogs I follow comments on Foley and ask: where is the Christian Right now? In one of those, "You have to be kidding" moments, the FRC has
blamed the lack of attention to Foley's behavior on "tolerance" for homosexuality.
While pro-homosexual activists like to claim that pedophilia is a completely distinct orientation from homosexuality, evidence shows a disproportionate overlap between the two. Although almost all child molesters are male and less than 3% of men are homosexual, about a third of all child sex abuse cases involve men molesting boys--and in one study, 86% of such men identified themselves as homosexual or bisexual. Ignoring this reality got the Catholic Church into trouble over abusive priests, and now it is doing the same to the House GOP leadership. They discounted or downplayed earlier reports concerning Foley's behavior--probably because they did not want to appear "homophobic." The Foley scandal shows what happens when political correctness is put ahead of protecting children.
That's just unreal. Putting political correctness ahead of protecting children? How about putting politics ahead of protecting children? I'm looking at you, Tony Perkins.
I'd ask Tony Perkins this: do you really believe that if Foley was a Democrat, this is how this would have gone? Not likely.
