Sexual contact with 15 year olds is not pedophilia.

Amongst an instinctively social species like ours, ethical treatment of each other requires no justification or explanation.

Here are some ideas...

Maybe labeling ones-self as a religious person or a spiritual leader, doesn't necessarily indicate underlying humanity or morality.
Maybe the way the people present themselves to the world may, or may not be, reality.
Maybe religion is the perfect cover for many sick, manipulative, dishonest people and our trust of them should be earned, rather than given.
Maybe, for our protection and survival, we need a little less faith in religion and a lot more skepticism.

They show up in the watch much more often than the percentage of gays in the general population would predict.
