It’s also strange that Rusty thinks, or wants his audience to think, that liberals somehow approve of pedophilia and are behind a “movement” to make it “normal”. This claim is tough to reconcile with the fact that society in general (despite its alleged liberal permissivity and decadence) is becoming much more aware of the realities of abused children, especially the sexual abuse of minors, and is increasingly taking steps to ensure that such abuse is not allowed to be accepted as normal any longer, or to be hushed up by perpetrators of such abuse, whether those perpetrators be church employees, parents or other figures of authority. And needless to say, attempts to make churches, parents, schools and officials more accountable for the care of children have not always been well-received by certain segments of society who would prefer more “respect for authority” and “less government intrusion”.
