Report part 2
John presented a summary of the related paper, "Evolution or
Extinction?, and shortly before the meeting sent it to the secretary.
Due to the lack of a photocopier at our meeting place – and, in a
moment of forgetfulness from the secretary, there was only one
specimen of the paper present. Here it follows in full:
Evolution or Extinction – A New Direction for a New Millennium
Twenty five years have now passed since the relentless campaign of hatred and spite against socalled
"pedophiles" began in earnest in the United States, spreading initially to Britain, then to
Europe, Australasia, and eventually all continents. Whilst the increasing offensives from
numerous flourishing organisations - and the individuals who are their driving force - have
evolved over the decades, the 'victims' of these attacks remain on the defensive, using basically
the same old arguments and methods in the increasingly despondent hope that reason and
enlightenment will triumph over prejudice, ignorance, and loathing.
Advances in technology have greatly assisted the "pedophobes" in gaining a strategic
advantage in the monitoring, persecution, entrapment, and eventual prosecution of individuals
and organisations. With the exception of the use of computer technology for the exchange of
information, and the creation, distribution and encryption of "pornography", the victims of
these tyrannical xenophobes have remained in the 'dark ages' of the 1970's when honesty and
rational debate were virtues.
Blatant lying and deception by politicians, journalists and 'academics' has now become so
commonplace in western democracies that it is expected and accepted. The consequences when
they are caught and exposed are becoming so small that they no longer act as a deterrent. What
do we have to offer in return? Truth and reason - but does anyone want to listen? To hell with
the trust!
Instead of responding to negative comments and defending inter-generational relationships,
perhaps it would be better for us to ask the questions, and lead attention away from the socalled
"predatory paedophile" to the issue of child sexuality, and forms of child abuse
perpetrated by the State.
Why do children actively seek sexual contact not only with their peers, but also with
adults?
What action is the State taking to deal with predatory children who are intelligent and
determined enough to use technology in the pursuit of knowledge and sexual
experimentation?
Why do children deliberately enter Internet chat rooms which they know are sexually
explicit and may lead to a physical encounter?
What about the widespread "abuse" of children by adults who are not paedophiles?
