Studies show that being gay does not make you a pederast. Period. What does make you one is personal emotional immaturity, including but not just about sex. Such people should not be around children, let alone parishoners. These are the data from the real world. Your argument reflects the illogic the clericalists who are scapegoating gays spew. They make it because it is consistent with their view of homosexuality as disordered, which is another subject and something they are also wrong about. Cardinal Newman was gay. He was buried with his lover, a fellow priest. Indeed, they tried to separate the corpses and could not (what God has joined). He was no pederast. His relationship was adult. In rectories around the world, gay priests have adult relations with eachother and not altar boys. The two phenomenon are not the same.
