What the hell do same sex marriage proponents have to do with pedophiles?

But it does NOT appear that he only surmised from the headline. The direct quotes prove that you are wrong in that assertion and now you're making yourself look really stupid.

Not a damn thing, but it's not from a lack of certain people trying to tie the two together.

It's called slippery slope and history is replete with examples that it happens.

Poor ole pedophiles have to hunker down in fear. They can't help it.
Will serial killers be next?
Do we have you on record as stating you are opposed to a potential serial killer getting psychological help that might avert a killing spree?

Well based on that logic, then heterosexual marriage has led to homosexual marriage so we should outlaw heterosexual marriage immediately.

Would you rather deal with them after they commit a crime or before?
If you're recommending a good moral upbringing then I agree.

No. Heterosexual marriage has been around for 1,000s of years. Slippery slope occurs within a short time frame.
Here is an example. From 1960 to 2000 (forty years):
8 year old kids could buy cigarettes from vending machines for a quarter.
Vending machines banned. But smoking allowed everywhere.
Smoking restricted to the back seats of airplanes.
Smoking banned on all airplanes.
Smoking restricted by sections in restaurants.
Smoking banned in all restaurants.
Smoking banned in college classrooms.
Smoking banned on college campuses.
I could go on but I'm sure you see the point.

Or would you prefer they don't get help and then one day molest a child?
Who's to say they're not born attracted to children so getting them help is pointless? If some males are born attracted to other males and therapy is pointless because it is genetic, it seems to me that some males may be born attracted to children and therapy is pointless because it is genetic.

Stop being behind the curve and looking stupid. Read the quotes in the first link from the NYT. Then read the entire NYT link.

Maybe they are born that way, but until they are allowed to seek help and allow us to study them without fear of reprisal we may never know. You didn't realize you were doing it but you proved the need for the programs suggested in the OP-ed. Sounds like you are firmly on the side of science and reason, congrats.
Posted on 10/6/14 at 12:51 pm to ballscaster
if you read the op-ed, it sounds more than reasonable in fact a good idea. How can you argue, we should not try to stop child molestation before it starts?
the op ed is very clear that if they commit a crime, they should suffer the consequences. But why not try to get them help before they commit a crime?

Based on current understanding you are correct. I guess we should therefor stop looking for a cure and allow child rape to continue.
Posted on 10/6/14 at 12:54 pm to Hawkeye95
Ya, I'm all for treatment/identification stopping them before they do something.
My problem is I really can't believe we ever let these people back out into society after they commit this crime.
I feel like Pedos, Murderers and rapists should be a lifetime you're done kind of thing.

If you read the actual oped you see how stupid your arguments and the arguments put forth by front page about slippery slope are. It's pathetic really.

That is your opinion and I don't value your opinion. But, if you'd like to show that my link's quotes from the NYT are fabricated, then knock yourself out.

I read the actual oped and your assertion that the OP is from a 'HEADLINE' is so stupid that I would not reappear on this thread if I were you. But if you want more embarrassment, knock yourself out.
