#52. THE HOMOSEXUAL–PEDOPHILE CONNECTION
This section uses the works of “Abū Zaynab ʿAbd al-Raḥmān al-Qawīm” from his book called “Why Homosexuality is Prohibited in Islam”. Buy here: Why Homosexuality is Prohibited in Islam: Amazon.co.uk: Abd al-Raḥmān al-Qawīm, Abū Zaynab: 9798374949674: Books
This section argues that there is a connection between homosexuality and pedophilia, especially regarding attraction toward young males. It attempts to support this claim using religious texts, historical examples, and modern cases.
‘pedophilia’ refers to sexual attraction of an adult male to an underage girl or an adult female to an underage boy, but is now used more broadly to include homosexual attraction to boys. The official term for homosexualpedophila is pederasty and one who engages in it is a pederast.
The Qurʾān describes the people of Prophet Lūṭ as having desires for males instead of lawful relations with women. When angels came to Lūṭ in the form of young, attractive men, he became worried, knowing how his people behaved. They came rushing toward him with wrongful intentions, rejecting what was lawful and insisting on immoral acts.
Classical scholars(Imam ibn Kathir, Imam Nasir as-Sadi, Imam Al-Baghawi, and many others)[1] explained that the angels appeared as very handsome young men as a test. Lūṭ feared that his people would try to harm them due to their known tendencies. He offered his daughters in lawful marriage as a pure alternative, but his people refused and preferred the young male guests. This is presented as evidence of their inclination toward youthful males.
The section of the book then compares this to modern times, claiming that similar behavior exists today, including individuals who travel to poorer regions to exploit young boys.
It also argues that certain activist movements have tried to reduce or remove age-of-consent laws, presenting this under the language of “rights” and “freedom.” The claim is made that such efforts follow a gradual strategy of changing public attitudes.
A clarification is included: while pedophilia generally refers to attraction to minors, the discussion here includes same-sex attraction toward boys, sometimes referred to as pederasty. It is also acknowledged that not every homosexual person engages in such behavior.
Historical Figures and Influence
The section of the book discusses several individuals who influenced modern attitudes toward sexuality:
- Early activists argued that homosexual behavior is natural and should not be criminalized.
- Some founded organizations promoting these ideas.
- Others worked to remove legal restrictions or influence public opinion.
- Certain researchers and authors contributed to changing societal views through studies and media strategies.
These figures are presented as playing a role in shaping modern movements.
Organizations and Activism
The section of the book claims that some organizations:
- Advocate for changing laws related to age and consent
- Promote their goals under human rights language
- Attempt to influence society gradually through campaigns and messaging
It suggests that these efforts aim to normalize behaviors that were previously rejected.
Media and Publications
The text mentions books, journals, and magazines that discuss controversial topics related to relationships and sexuality.
It claims that:
- Some publications present such ideas in a supportive way
- Others argue for removing legal restrictions
- Media is used as a tool to shape public perception over time
Historical and Global Context
The section of the book states that exploitation of minors has existed in different societies throughout history. It claims that modern issues like sex tourism are a continuation of older patterns, particularly in economically vulnerable regions.
Modern Cases and Examples
The section of the book lists various individuals accused or convicted of crimes involving minors, presenting them as examples supporting its argument.
One example is given below:
Dr William Ayres, former head of American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, a believer in “child liberation” and follower of Wilhelm Reich (student of Sigmund Freud and campaigner for child sexuality). He was convicted in 2012 for molesting more than 50 boy patients.
Other examples include public figures, activists, and professionals linked to similar accusations or controversial views.
Networks and Movements
The section of the book claims that some individuals and groups:
- Support each other through networks
- Advocate for legal and cultural changes
- Use indirect methods such as campaigns and messaging
It suggests that some efforts are open, while others are more subtle.
Statistical Claims
The section of the book references studies that claim:
- A notable portion of abuse cases involve boys
- Some offenders show same-sex attraction
These statistics are presented as supporting evidence, though interpretations may vary.
Conclusion
The article concludes that there is a connection between homosexuality and pedophilia based on religious interpretation, historical examples, activism, and modern cases.
At the same time, it acknowledges that not every individual within a group is involved in such actions.

#53. A FEW COMMON Homosexuality MYTHS DEBUNKED
First: A homosexual ‘orientation’ is not changeable. Many homosexuals change and become heterosexual after being disillusioned with the homosexual lifestyle in which they may have been abused and harmed or just simply fed up.[2] Research by psychiatrist Dr. Robert Spitzer led to his argument that some homosexuals can overcome their homosexual desires following appropriate psychotherapy.[3] He said, “It is often said that those who try to change their sexual orientation become very depressed as a result. That was not the case for the subjects of this study. There was in fact a marked decline in depression after their effort to change.”[4] However, to illustrate how powerful the gay lobby is, due to the outrage his research created, he retracted his conclusions short of ten years later. Blatantly, contradicting his findings, he said, “The study does not provide evidence that gays can change.”[5]
This is falsified by mountainous empirical evidence in the form of thousand of ex-gays who have overcome same-sex attractions and went on to get married and have their own biological children.[6]
In any case, psychologists and psychiatrists who are immune to gay lobbying pressure continue to convey factual reality and affirm that removing same-sex attractions through psychotherapy is proven to work.[7]
In addition, there are to be found “gay” activists who reject the “born gay” and “gay gene” hoaxes and declare that they are “queer by choice.” Second: Homosexual conduct is not harmful to health. The most obvious example of harmful consequences of such conduct is the AIDS epidemic amongst homosexuals.[8]
The epidemic in male child molestation occurring simultaneously with the rise of an aggressive homosexual subculture that campaigns for reducing age of sexual consent laws (thereby seeking to normalize pedophilia) is not coincidental. Molestation can be a death sentence if HIV-AIDS is contracted. The Journal of the American Medical Association reported[9] that 50% of male AIDS victims reported having sex with an adult male by the age of 16, and 20% had sex with an adult male by the age of 10. The Centre for Disease Control (CDC) writes, “Gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (MSM) represent approximately 2% of the United States population, yet are the population most severely affected by HIV. In 2010, young gay and bisexual men (aged 13-24 years) accounted for 72% of new HIV infections among all persons aged 13 to 24, and 30% of new infections among all gay and bisexual men.”[10]
In its Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR) of 9th May 2014, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) wrote, “Primary and secondary syphilis rates increased among men of all ages and racesethnicities during 2005–2013, from 5.1 cases per 100,000 population in 2005 to 9.8 in 2013, when men accounted for 91.1% of all cases reported in the United States. Although rates remain highest among black men (28.1), recent increases were greatest among Hispanic and white men. Currently, syphilis is predominantly an MSM [men who have sex with men] epidemic.” [11]
Third: Homosexuals suffer ill health and mental depression because of homophobia and discrimination. It was claimed in the 1970s that homosexuals are no different mentally to heterosexuals and to claim so is discrimination. When the mental health of homosexuals was shown in studies to be inferior to that of heterosexuals, homophobia and discrimination were blamed as the causes. A homosexual lifestyle is connected to disease and ill health because of the risky behaviour that is part and parcel of it. This in turn impacts mental health. Further, in countries which are ‘gayfriendly’ such as the Netherlands, rates of mental illnesses do not significantly decrease. No country equals the Dutch population in its tolerance of homosexuality. They also allow euthanasia, prostitution, marijuana smoking, same-sex marriage and even tolerated pedophiles until a number of high profile cases in Europe changed public opinion.[12]
However, Dutch homosexuals and bisexuals suffer the same degree and frequency of mental health problems as homosexual populations in other places such as America. Many studies exist now that establish a correlation between homosexuality, bisexuality and increased mental disorders and suicide risks. There is little evidence to suggest that discrimination and homophobia are exclusive causes. The body of evidence suggests a combination of factors are involved and that particular elements of homosexual lifestyles expose them to an increased risk for experiencing mental health problems.[13]
Now that we have stripped all of the individual layers of propaganda and word play employed to advance the modern “gay agenda” - [the born gay, gay gene, gay brain, gay hormones and gay nature hoaxes] we ultimately return back to the behavioural practice at the centre of “gay” politics which is sodomy. Hence, it is appropriate to take a look at this practice and its impact upon the health of individuals and societies from a factual, scientific standpoint.

#54. HOMOSEXUALS ON MARRIAGE
The statement to the right was posted by homosexuals opposed to same-sex marriage. Homosexual activists and “gay rights” campaigners are divided about same-sex marriage[14] and have considerable debate amongst themselves about the meaning, purpose, significance and symbolism of “gay marriage.” From a survey of their discussions, it is clear that whilst they differ on whether there are actual benefits to homosexuals in legalizing gay marriage or not and whether it is purely a symbolic ritual of no further significance to the daily lives of homosexuals, they all realize that its legalization serves as a powerful tool to destroy the traditional institution of marriage.
Michelangelo Signorile, gay activist, wrote in 1994 presenting a proposition, “A middle ground might be to fight for same-sex marriage and its benefits and then, once granted, redefine the institution of marriage completely, to demand the right to marry, not as a way of adhering to society’s moral codes, but rather to debunk a myth and radically alter an archaic institution... [Legalizing ‘same-sex marriage’] is also a chance to wholly transform the definition of family in American culture.” [15]
He also said, “Rather than being transformed by the institution of marriage, gay men — some of whom have raised the concept of the ‘open relationship’ to an art form — could simply transform the institution itself, making it more sexually open, even influencing their heterosexual counterparts.” [16]
In an interview about same-sex marriage, Ryan Conrad, a gay activist who actually opposes same-sex marriage, is cited by Xtra Magazine as saying, “And after all, we are advocating the destruction of the centrality of marriage and the nuclear family unit...” [17]
The Gay Liberation Front stated in its 1971 Manifesto, “We must aim at the abolition of the family, so that the sexist, male supremacist system can no longer be nurtured there.” [18]
Paula Ettelbrick, lesbian thinker and activist stated in the 1980s, “Being queer is more than setting up house, sleeping with a person of the same gender, and seeking state approval for doing so... Being queer means pushing the parameters of sex, sexuality, and family, and in the process, transforming the very fabric of society.”[19]
Nan Hunter, professor of Law at Georgetown Law Center and samesex marriage advocate states that the purpose of legalizing gay marriage is to “destabilize marriage’s gendered definition, thus disrupting the link between gender and marriage, thereby subverting its power differential.”[20]
Masha Gessen is a Jewish lesbian “gay rights” activist. In a panel discussion at the Sydney Writers Festival in June 2012 stated about same-sex marriage, “It’s a no-brainer that we should have the right to marry, but I also think equally that it’s a no-brainer that the institution of marriage should not exist [cheers from the audience]. That causes my brain some trouble. And part of why it causes me trouble is because fighting for gay marriage generally involves lying about what we are going to do with marriage when we get there— because we lie that the institution of marriage is not going to change, and that is a lie. The institution of marriage is going to change, and it should change. And again, I don’t think it should exist. And I don’t like taking part in creating fictions about my life.[21]
That’s sort of not what I had in mind when I came out thirty years ago. I have three kids who have five parents, more or less, and I don’t see why they shouldn’t have five parents legally… [After my divorce,] I met my new partner, and she had just had a baby, and that baby’s biological father is my brother, and my daughter’s biological father is a man who lives in Russia, and my adopted son also considers him his father. So the five parents break down into two groups of three… And really, I would like to live in a legal system that is capable of reflecting that reality. And I don’t think that’s compatible with the institution of marriage..”[22]
Amy Lowell, an Australian lesbian, states, “When it comes to samesex marriages, John Howard has got us pretty well summed up. We’re not cut out for it... Let’s leave marriage and other drudgery to heterosexuals. They’ve had millenniums of practice. They’re good at child-rearing and taking out the rubbish. I never wanted to be like them, even when I was one of them... Surely we can come up with something better: semi-marriage or quarter-marriage, which would narrow the field down to eight. Or a casual, part-time or temporary marriage. Or even a flexitime marriage [Heterosexuals are] welcome to it.”[23]
In other words, the concept of “marriage” is alien to a homosexual lifestyle and runs counter to it. Rather than homosexuals mimicking heterosexuals in the issue of marriage, gays should force their concept of multiple promiscuous relationships onto the non-homosexual society. Thus, marriage changes from being between a single male and a single female to being between a group of males or a group of females and in some cases a mixture of males and females. Gareth Kirkby, gay activist and editor of a Canadian gay newspaper Capital Xtra, writes, “Remember the headlines...that claimed we were flocking to city hall and churches to get the deed done as courts legalized same-sex marriage in province after province? ...It was a lie. Very few among us are eager to embrace marriage rights... Marriage is a heterosexual institution designed by the church, endorsed by the state, with the intention of controlling the sexuality of women and by extension, their husbands... I don’t expect the wedding rate will pick up. We have something better in our relationships, something that allows for a variety of friendships, f--k buddies, lovers, sisters and ex’s. We don ‘t put all the pressures on one person... We don’t need the limitations of marriage. So we’re taking a pass. But what waste of time and money, and a tragic diversion of focus, in that decade-long fight.”[24]
Even Marshall Kirk and Hunter Madsen - masterminds of modern “gay” propaganda - write, “In short, the gay lifestyle - if such a chaos can, after all, legitimately be called a lifestyle - it just doesn’t work: it doesn’t serve the two functions for which all social framework evolve: to constrain people’s natural impulses to behave badly and to meet their natural needs. While it’s impossible to provide an exhaustive analytic list of all the root causes and aggravants of this failure, we can asseverate at least some of the major causes. Many have been dissected, above, as elements of the Ten Misbehaviors; it only remains to discuss the failure of the gay community to provide a viable alternative to the heterosexual family.” [25] They affirm that a “gay” lifestyle runs contrary to the heterosexual family as a matter of principle and that the two are simply not compatible. Thus, whilst some gays try to introduce “marriage” and “family” concepts into homosexuality and to pressure governments to legalize them and develop legislation regarding them, others see this as a waste of time. These concepts are not compatible with what it fundamentally means to be a homosexual.
From the above sample quotes the following affairs become clear: The smarter, shrewder homosexuals understand that the very concept of marriage runs counter to homosexuality in which there is an innate tendency towards promiscuity. That fighting for the legalization of “gay marriage” is a waste of time because homosexuals do not really want to get married and statistics prove it. That “gay marriage” is merely symbolic and does not affect homosexuals in their relationships. That legalizing “gay marriage” is nevertheless a way to undermine marriage in principle since marriage is purely a heterosexual institution founded upon the union of a single male with a single female. If marriage is redefined to include same-sex marriage and open marriage (known as polyamory), marriage as a concept can be destroyed and this is of tremendous tactical benefit to homosexual causes.

Islamic Rulings on Homosexual Marriage
Previously, we explained that Islam distinguishes between homosexual feelings and homosexual acts. The feeling itself can be similar to other sinful inclinations, such as a person feeling drawn toward fornication, adultery, rape, or other forbidden acts. Having an evil desire or feeling does not make a person evil or accountable, unless the person acts upon it.
As we mentioned earlier, there is a clear hadith in which the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said that Allah forgives his Ummah for evil thoughts as long as they do not act upon them or speak about them.
Therefore, Islamic scholars make a clear distinction:
- Having a feeling or temptation is not a sin by itself.
- Acting upon the sinful desire is what becomes a sin and a punishable act in Islam.
Now we will mention the works and statements of major scholars regarding homosexual acts and homosexual feelings, showing how they explained this issue and clarified the difference between temptation and action.
Homosexuality is a grave sin in Islam. Homosexuality goes against the pure human nature created by Allah, by making men content with men and women with women, destroying families, adversely affecting the birth rate, causing the spread of killer diseases, harming the innocent when children are raped, and generally spreading corruption on earth, should be uprooted and stamped out.
Throughout Islamic history, the major scholars of Islam have been unanimous in their understanding that homosexual acts are strictly prohibited and considered among the major sins. Their conclusions are based on the clear teachings of the Qur’an, the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, and the consensus of the early generations of Muslims.
Classical Islamic scholars studied the story of the people of Prophet Lūṭ (ʿalayhis-salām) mentioned in the Qur’an and concluded that the practice of same-sex sexual relations was a grave transgression that led to the destruction of that nation. Because of this clear textual evidence, scholars from all major schools of Islamic jurisprudence consistently ruled that such acts are unlawful.
The four great Imams of Islamic jurisprudence—Imam Abū Ḥanīfah, Imam Mālik, Imam al-Shāfiʿī, and Imam Aḥmad ibn Ḥanbal—along with their students and later jurists, agreed that homosexual acts are forbidden in Islam. While scholars differed on certain legal details regarding how punishment should be done but they did not differ on the fundamental ruling that the act itself is sinful and prohibited and the one whom is done and who does both should be killed except if one of them is not reached the age of puberty then punishment should be lesser than execution.
Many later scholars also reaffirmed this position in their writings. They explained that homosexual behavior contradicts the natural order created by Allah, opposes the purpose of marriage, and undermines the preservation of lineage, which is one of the essential objectives of Islamic law.
For this reason, Islamic scholars throughout the centuries consistently warned Muslim communities against normalizing or justifying such behavior. At the same time, they emphasized that individuals struggling with sinful desires should be encouraged toward repentance, self-control, and adherence to the moral guidance of Islam.
Thus, the position of the major scholars of Islam remains clear and consistent: homosexual acts are prohibited, and the moral framework of Islam encourages human beings to live according to the natural disposition (fitrah) and the guidance revealed by Allah.
Al-Allamah(Highly Learned Men) Shaykh ‘Ubayd al-Jābirī about Gay Marriage
We have discussed that if a person justifies homosexuality as halal or believes it is halal, then such a person is kafir-mushrik.
Moreover, if a person engages in a same-sex marriage knowingly, or if two people testify in a same-sex nikaah (marriage), then the couple and the two witnesses are all kafir-mushrik, with no doubt about it.
This ruling is mentioned by Al-Allamah Shaykh Ubayad al-Jābirī (rahimahullāh).
The Questionnaire says:
The Supreme Court in America has legislated a new rulling, permitting marriage between a man and man & between a woman and woman and you find some Muslims, May Allah guide them, in agreeing to this ruling, saying that if a man wants to marry another man there is no problem in this, do you have any advice for them?
Shaykh Ubayd Al-Jabiri replied:
I seek refuge in Allah.
They are donkeys, not people.
Donkeys dressed as people.
This action is disbelief.
Marriage between two men is something which is well known in the Islam.The one who does the Nikah, the guardian & the two donkey spouses(2males or females) & the two witnesses are all disbelievers because the impermissibility of this is something that is well known. The fact that a disbelieving country has permitted this is not evidence, this type of evidence is weak.
It is narrated about Abdul Malik Ibn Marwan who was one of the leaders of Bani Umayyah & Abdul Malik Ibn Marwan is well known, he is called the father of the Khualfah(rulers/leaders) because most of the leaders of Bani Umayyah were either his sons or his grandsons, he (Abdul Malik Ibn Marwan) said : “If it (Homosexuality) was not mentioned in the Quaran then I would not have said it could take place in this Ummah”, meaning that it is well known of the religion by necessity(the disgust & impermissibility of it) even with the common folk.
By Allah if you were to ask a elderly general righteous women saying to her “ such and such(man) from the people wants to marry a man,” Do you think she would refrain from cursing him? By Allah I don’t think she would refrain from cursing and abusing him.
I say this is well known in the religion by necessity(by everybody), well known in the religion by necessity (by everybody) & Nikah (a marriage) is making it permissible.
Why did the prophet command a detachement & the narration is in the Sunnah & is authentic to cut off the head of a man who married his father’s wife? Merely an action, understand this! this is permitting homosexuality which is something well known in the religion by necessity(by everybody).
Differentiate between the two affairs, the marriage between a man & his father’s wife & it makes no difference whether he divorced her or died while married to her, this is making it permissible for her likewise whoever marries a man like her (the same situation but with a man) then there is no difference(in the ruling).
Don’t be confused about this, the action of fornication is a sin & whoever makes it permissible having knowledge of it & intending it, fulfilling the conditions & removing any barriers (which may prevent the ruling of disbelief upon him), making it permissible by frank speech then this one has disbelieved, as for one who is merely does the action of fornication even if it is with a 100 women then this is fisq (disobedience/sin), it is obligatory upon him to repent & he has fell into that which anger Allah & we have already explained the likes of these affairs.
Homosexality likewise differentiates between the action & the marriage, whichever (man) marries another man this is making it permissible whether he likes it or not, how do we make it permissible for ourselves our wives?
Do we take them by their hands from the houses of their fathers? How? With a correct marriage contract. Is it not so?
And this contract, the marriage contract is done for him, differentiate!
May Allah bless you, O students of knowledge who are present & those of you who are listening, differentiate between the ambiguous matters.
End of speech

Therefore, it’s clear that if someone performs a same-sex marriage, meaning a marriage between two men or between two women, then this act is treating homosexuality as permissible by establishing a marriage between the same gender. Such a claim makes what Allah has forbidden appear lawful. Therefore, the couple who enter into such a marriage become kāfir-mushrik, and those who testify or validate such a nikāḥ are also kāfir-mushrik, as mentioned by al-ʿAllāmah Shaykh Ubayd al-Jābirī. If they die without valid repentance, then they will remain in the Hellfire forever.
Having a feeling of same-sex attraction is not a sin in Islam unless someone implements it through speech or by engaging in sexual intimacy, because our last Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said that Allah forgives the evil thoughts of this Ummah as long as they are not spoken about or acted upon.
The Last Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said:
“Indeed Allah has forgiven my nation for what crosses their minds, so long as they
do not speak of it or act upon it.”
(Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī and Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim)
Likewise, in reality there may be some men who feel attraction toward their own mothers, but that does not mean we say incest is halal or act upon this sinful desire. Similarly, a father may feel a sexual desire toward his daughter, a mother toward her son, a brother toward his sister, a sister toward her brother, or a father toward his daughter-in-law, or vice versa. This does not mean it is correct, nor does it make incest halal, nor should such desires ever be acted upon. Likewise, we should not begin propagating the idea that such feelings are inborn or proven by genetics scientifically. Of course not, never.

[1] The connection between homosexuality and pedophilia - or to put it another way, the strong gravitation towards younger men and boys - is undeniable. This will be established through revealed text and actual reality. The Qurʾān has demonstrated this strong gravitation towards the youthful beauty of boys amongst homosexuals and their predatory lust for them.
Allāh said, “And when Our messengers, [the angels], came to Lot, he was anguished for them and felt for them great discomfort and said, ‘This is a trying day.’ And his people came hastening to him, and before [this] they had been doing evil deeds. He said, ‘O my people, these are my daughters; they are purer for you. So fear Allah and do not disgrace me concerning my guests. Is there not among you a man of reason?’ They said, ‘You have already known that we have not concerning your daughters any claim, and indeed, you know what we want’.” (11:77-79).
Ibn Kathīr, the Qurʾānic commentator explains, “The [angels] came to Lot in the most beautiful appearance there can be, in the form of two youths with handsome faces, [this being] a trial and test from Allāh, and within it is a wisdom and far-reaching proof. So they came to him which grieved him and his soul became constrained because of them. He feared that unless he hosts them, someone else from his people will host them and will exercise their evil upon them.” - Refer to Tafsīr al-Qurʾān al-Aẓīm of Ibn Kathīr.
Imām al-Baghawī said, “When those angels came to Lot in the form of handsome [alluring] youth with beautiful faces, Lot became grieved by their arrival... this is because when Lot alyhisalam saw the beauty of their faces and their good fragrance, he pitied them with respect to his people lest they desire them for lustful deeds and he knew that he would be in need of protecting them. ‘And his people came hastening to him’, Ibn ʿAbbās said, ‘Rushing towards him’ and Mujāhid said, ‘Running towards him.’ And prior to them coming to Lot, ‘they had been doing evil deeds’ meaning having sex with men in their anuses.” Refer to Tafsīr al-Baghawī.
Imām al-Saʿdī said, “When those angels who had [visited] Ibrāhīm came to Lot, ‘he felt for them great discomfort’ meaning their arrival was hard upon him... because he knew that his people would not leave them alone as they were in the form of youthful boys, beardless, extremely beautiful and complete (in appearance). So ‘his people came hastening to him’ meaning, running, all of a sudden, desiring to exercise their lust on his guests, [meaning] that which they were accustomed to doing [of anal intercourse].” Refer to Tafsīr al-Saʿdī
So Lot offered his daughters to his people, saying that they are “purer”(Vaginal sex with a woman is cleaner, purer and healthier than anal sex (whether with a man or a woman) and is the intended biologically designed and route of sexual satisfaction) for them and remonstrated against them that they should not dishonour his guests.
However, they insisted that they were not interested in his daughters and had a desire for his youthful [boyish-looking] guests. This passage of the Qurʾān should be reflected over in light of the factual evidence presented in the rest of this chapter. The statement of Allāh “And his people came hastening to him” meaning, to Lot so as to solicit anal intercourse with his youthful guests brings to mind the practice of homosexuals today who hasten to places like Thailand, Sri Lanka, the Phillipines and major city centres across Europe (where underground male child-prostitution is on the increase) in order to seek fresh young boys for the fulfilment of sodomistic fantasies and pleasures.
For many decades, many prominent gay activists and the organizations set up by them have been working around the world to gradually lower the age of sexual consent to facilitate greater access to boys and to expand the numbers in their homosexual community. This is being done in the name of “child rights” and “human rights.” Just as there was a move to normalize homosexuality in the 1970s, a similar move is in motion to gradually normalize and eventually legalize pedophilia. Upon consideration of all the evidence presented below, this appears to be the long term and actual intended goal of the gay rights movement.
Before we proceed to outline the evidence, a note about terminology. Strictly-speaking, ‘pedophilia’ refers to sexual attraction of an adult male to an underage girl or an adult female to an underage boy, but is now used more broadly to include homosexual attraction to boys. The official term for homosexualpedophila is pederasty and one who engages in it is a pederast. The following is just a very small selection of evidence etablishing the foundational link between homosexuality and pedophilia (or pederasty more specifically). - It will become apparent through this evidence that after having successfully normalized and legalized homosexuality, they are marching towards their goal of normalizing and legalizing “consensual” sodomy with boys. “The Holy Grail of the pedophile movement is the lowering or elimination of all age of consent laws. The main warriors in this political and legal battle are ‘mainstream’ homosexual groups. Robert Knight and Frank York of the Family Research Council have thoroughly documented this in a report. ‘As far back as 1972, the National Coalition of Gay Organizations adopted a ‘gay rights platform’ that included a demand to ‘repeal all laws governing the age of sexual consent.’’ It is homosexual activists within the United Nations who are lobbying to give sexual rights to underage children. In England, the campaign is being led by Outrage! and Stonewall, both homosexual organizations. The Dutch homosexual group, Association for the Integration of Homosexuality, has succeeded in lowering the age of legal sex to twelve in Holland. Assisting them was another homosexual group, the COC, which stated: ‘The liberation of pedophilia must be viewed as a gay issue... [and that] ages of consent should therefore be abolished... by acknowledging the affinity between homosexuality and pedophilia, the COC has quite possible made it easier for homosexual adults to become more sensitive to the erotic desires of younger members of their sex, thereby broadening gay identity.’ In Canada, the effort is led by homosexual activist and NAMBLA defender Gerald Hannon. In America, aside from NAMBLA, the effort is supported by most of the major homosexual organizations such as the National Gay Task Force. Indeed, the annual homosexual ‘March on Washington’ invariably releases a ‘statement of demands’ which includes abolishing age of consent laws. Homosexuals in Hawaii have already successfully lowered the age of consent there to fourteen. To be frank, it is difficult to find an advocate of lowering the age of consent laws in the United States or elsewhere who is not a homosexual activist.” Child Molestation and the Homosexual Movement by S. Baldwin, published in the Regent University Law Review, Vol. 14 (2001- 2002), pp.277-278.
To make it clear, a strong link between homosexuality and pedophilia does not mean every homosexual is necessarily a pederast.
[2] Why I No Longer Want To Be Gay by Luis Pabon (American artist, social worker). “I no longer want to be gay. I know that on the surface this statement reeks of the denial, self-loathing and internalized homophobia commonly associated with accepting and integrating ones gayness but truth is, I just don’t want to be gay anymore. It has outlived its usefulness. I have experienced all aspects of the life and can safely say that it no longer speaks to the person that I am or want to become. I didn’t always feel this way. Initially I came to this community searching for love, intimacy and brotherhood. In return, I got shade, infidelity, loneliness and disunity. The self-loathing in this community forces you to encounter a series of broken men who are self-destructive, hurtful, cruel and vindictive towards one another. I have struggled to adapt my moral code to fit the behaviors concomitant with the lifestyle but it seems that the lifestyle is forcing me too far away from everything I love and value. No matter how many times I try to purge my perception of its firmly held beliefs and skewed biases, the same classic stereotypes of gay men keep rearing their ugly heads. The indiscriminate sex, superficiality, unstable relationships, self-hatred, peter pan syndrome, closeted connections, ageism, shade, loneliness, preoccupation with sex, prejudice, aversion to intimacy all seem to come out of the ground I thought they were buried under. Gay men just seem to find it difficult to transcend the stereotypes and clichés attached to the life and it is becoming disheartening…” Published by Luis Pabon on ThoughtCatalog.Com.

[5] In fact, they have been so successful at lobbying that the state of California passed a bill making it illegal for mental health professionals to engage in sexual orientation change therapy for minors and similar bills have been proposed in other states such as Illinois by gay activists.
[7] Another indication of the huge power of the LGBT lobby is that homosexuals within psychology assocations, boards and centres are joining forces to prevent “conversion therapy.” Significant numbers of homosexuals treat their feelings as unwanted and desire to remove them through counselling and help. However, conversion therapists are being targeted for essentially facilitating “apostasy” from homosexuality.

[13] In a major Dutch study known as NEMESIS, “It has been suggested that homosexuality is associated with psychiatric morbidity. This study examined differences between heterosexually and homosexually active subjects in 12-month and lifetime prevalence of DSM-III-R mood, anxiety, and substance use disorders in a representative sample of Dutch population (N=7076; aged 18-64 years). The findings support the assumption that people with same-sex sexual behavior are at greater risk for psychiatric disorders.” Sandfort TG et al.

Results also hint at a small, increased risk of recurrent depression among gay men, with symptom onset occurring, on average, during early adolescence.” Cochran and Mays.

[14] For example a homosexual organization called “Against Equality” has as its slogan, “Queer challenges to the politics of inclusion” and introduces itself as “an online archive, publishing, and arts collective focused on critiquing mainstream gay and lesbian politics. As queer thinkers, writers and artists, we are committed to dislodging the centrality of equality rhetoric and challenging the demand for inclusion in the institution of marriage, the US military, and the prison industrial complex via hate crimes legislation.” These homosexuals see marriage as a purely heterosexual institution, see homosexuality as a lifestyle to which the concept of marriage is alien, and oppose the demands of inclusion by gays into heterosexual concepts and institutions. However, whilst they differ on this matter, they all understand that legalizing “gay marriage” helps to destroy the institution of marriage and aids in undermining the heterosexual family structure. All of this facilitates avenues for recruiting children into homosexual lifestyles.

[21] This highlights the nature of the debate amongst homosexuals, many see gay marriage as mimickry of a useless heterosexual institution and as nothing more than a symbolic ritual with no further meaning or significance to the lives of homosexuals.
