“Sandusky clearly falls within your definition of a pederast”

LOL! I have not studied him. You are fascinated with this topic--not I! Sandusky was IMMORAL and broke the law. Don't you get it, Dumbo??

“If we were to go into the prisons and ask the pederast/pedophiles how they think the boys they have raped and abused feel about them you would of course get a bunch of love stories”

Christ you are stupid! The point of my post was that the VICTIMS convicted him! According to the Symposium…there were few victims in ancient Greek culture because what EVERYBODY was doing was sanctioned and considered moral! The pederasty (probably) indulged by Plato and Socrates was not immoral and was not illegal. They would have followed the social standards and regulations of the best Greek thinkers and moralists.

“Of course the real scandal at Penn State was Precisely that so many people knew exactly what Sandusky was doing but remained silent”

Sometimes people are complicit in immorality--agreed. Thanks for saying something half intelligent for a change. I am impressed!

“Who is going to have the guts to say anything against the rulers when they have your life and future in their filthy pervert hands?”

Back to your histrionic drama queen crap! Greek culture valued what we call pederasty. If one was lacking the experience of being either the erestes or the eromenos, then they generally would have experienced emotional trauma and issues of self esteem.
