It is frequently stated that the agenda for advancing homosexual rights has absolutely nothing to do with pedophilia, despite various studies which suggest that 20-25% of adult homosexuals involve themselves sexually with members of the same sex who are 16 years old or younger.

That aside, however, one of the centrepieces of the international agenda of the Left is to declare abortion a “fundamental human right” such that parents cannot interfere with the decision to abort that is made by a minor. (This is also part of the Freedom of Choice Act which president-elect Barack Obama has publicly committed himself to signing in short order after taking office.)

Yet if a minor has that sort of authority over his or her sexuality, it is plain to see that a minor is qualified to provide consent to enter a sexual relationship with an adult. Perhaps this is why Planned Parenthood has repeatedly been caught with its pants down in recent years, when counsellors turned a deaf ear to what, for all they knew, were egregious cases of statutory rape. (More recently, LiveActions Films have repeatedly drawn similar responses to abortion requests from Planned Parenthood all across the USA. Here is an example.)

Let’s not kid ourselves. Children who have “authority” to abort babies are going to be “granted authority” to have “consensual” sex with adults, whether heterosexual or not. The Left cannot have it both ways. They either must own up to their own ideology in practice (as seen in the Planned Parenthood cases), or they must admit that an underage girl is not equipped to make these sorts of decisions apart from the knowledge and consent of her parents.

This owning up will not happen, of course. The revolution of the Left has been advancing for many decades by way of desensitization. Admitting that pedophilia is part of the agenda would discredit the Left too much before the ideology has had sufficient opportunity to take practical root. Now is the time for vigilance, and to start stemming this tide.
