    If factual, this is a good argument. (I think it is not, but my opinion
    could change).

    Is there any evidence at all (scientific, not anecdotal) that it is

  Yes, NAMBLA, which is trying to legitmize homsexual relationships between

  There's organizational proof.

  The Catholic Church's homosexual scandal. It is a scandal and has resulted
in widepsread deflowering of young men by homosexuals.

  Another well documented organizational issue.

  The life and death of Montgomery Clift.

  Is there any evidence AT ALL? I am flabbergasted that even with a liberal
leaning you can respond as if you could be oblivious to these "proofs."

  That's kind of a 'hand waving' response. When reading studies, I found:

  Homsexuals have a higher incidence of a history of sexual abuse than
straights do. Which would tend to support your argument.
  However, there is a lot of strong evidence to refute it as well. It
appears that in order to 'convert' boys to homosexuality, the actions would
need to be taken at a young enough age that doing so would be felonious.
  There is also strong evidence that gays are not prone to pedophilia.
  The issue you bring up is a separate issue.
  There is also strong evidence that homosexual tendencies start as young as
age 5.

  What does one do about the moral dilemma? Catholics who are married take
the pill in direct defiance of the Pope's decree. Sex is a strong drive. If
I had to choose between legitimately only having sex with a woman or
illegitimately having sex with a man against social moors and religious
instruction - I'd be sneaking out and having sex with a man. It's one thing
to wait until... it is another entirely to be told that one's desires may
never be fulfilled. Honestly, I have no answer.
