<<<“The bible itself qualifies as documentary evidence.“>>>

"Oh? So there is corroborative evidence and a logical rationale to support the story...."

The existence or lack thereof of corroborating testimony does nothing to diminish the independent status of the biblical documents among Historical scholars as "documentary evidence". Ignorance and immature belligerence are your stock and trade. Real historians recognize that the biblical documents (especially the New Testament documents) constitute eyewitness historical claims. Historical Scholars who are not Christians readily admit this even if they deny the claims themselves.

Pedophiles are people and anal sex with boys is a sexual act which you have championed here repeatedly as a "RIGHT"
..........................................

"I don’t think that has anything to do with Pedophilia"

Why? Don't you believe that Pedophiles/Pederasts are people? Do you also deny that Pederasts/Pedophiles who have sex with children "choose" the "sexual act"?

What you tried to do was to redefine pederasty to mean sex between consenting adults when the dictionary definition and the context of the discussion had to do with sex ("usually anal") between adult men and boys.
