I’ve been writing these articles daily for over 15 years, and they are changing slightly.  It will probably tick off some people, but that’s OK.  We are trying to make America great again, and that means that we have to shift our focus from fixing things out there somewhere to looking at ourselves and fixing what’s broken within us, which allowed a broken world to occur in the first place.  So my work here is transforming perhaps from a Drudge Report from the classic days to more of a Tony Robbins motivational seminar at an Alcoholics Anonymous session.  That’s OK. When I started doing this, it wasn’t a very popular thing to do, and it made many people very angry.  But they are only angry because they know it’s true.  And that was never more abundantly true than over the issue of pedophilia, the diabolical trend of having sex with children that is such a horrendous problem—much more than most people want to admit to.  Here in my local community of Butler County, Ohio, we have seen sex with children and a very soft reaction to it from the public in general to be a significant trend among well-paid members of polite society.  So this isn’t just a scum bag in the corner with a porn addiction kind of problem.  It’s happening everywhere.  This past year, I was able to serve as a foreman on a grand jury, and I saw lots of evidence of child pornography that showed me the face of true evil manifesting in the world. That is such a problem. I would put it at number one out of all our current issues.  There are people trying to have sex with kids that you know and they are trying to do it right now.  And no child is safe if they interact with five or more people, even within family structures.  But why is it such a problem?  And why is it so hard for us to admit to it?  Well, that’s the heart of the problem.  We were all raised to advance it.

When we were all kids and coming of age, we were told by society that smoking, drinking, and having sex were “adult” content in movies and books and that we were kept from seeing or witnessing the practice.  Before puberty, we teach kids fun things, and we talk about those things as kids’ things.  But when we get to a certain age and want to show that we are adults, we start doing one of those three things: sex, drugs, and drinking to prove that we have come of age.  How many fourteen-year-old girls take up smoking as a means to show the world that they are now ready to be pollinated and have gained the power to use sex as a weapon?  Well, why do they think that?  Because we told them that was how adults become adults.  And they want to be adults and transition from being a kid.  We taught them that the values of being a kid were to be locked in a closet never to return, or to sell all those cute things from our childhood in a yard sale, to trade all the adorable stuffed animals with body piercings, pop music posters, and sexual conquests.  And because we focus on those three things as our gateways to adulthood, we don’t give ourselves any room to grow any further, and most people never mature beyond the age of 15 years old.  By that time, the mistakes of that chosen lifestyle scare people for life, and they never get over all the bad things they did during this age group.

By the time most people turn 50 or 60, they have made so many mistakes in their own lives and then destroyed the lives of their children with the same diabolical practices that they start to go a little psycho and lose touch with reality.  They come across as so out of touch that young people never consider listening to them for wisdom, which makes the situation worse for the older people, and they drop off the map and die quietly while their grandkids and great-grandkids can’t take their eyes off their smartphones during the funeral, caring almost nothing for the somber occasion.  That is a big reason why adults seek sex with kids, either to get back to that innocence or to undo in their minds the mistakes they made their entire adult lives.  Adults are old and broken, and kids are new and fresh, so in a parade of broken people, kids don’t have much of a chance to enter their teenage years without some corrupt influence trying to groom them into horrendous behavior on a path to self-destruction because that’s all the adults know to do and they pass the mess on to the next generation for all kinds of foolish reasons.  And before you know it, the men are taking their adult wealth and secretly flying to Cambodia to have sex with a harem fantasy of 14-year-old girls while the wife discharges her frustrations with growing insanity because women express themselves differently on this problem than men do.  Women feel rejected.  The men seek youth to do it all over again knowing what they do now that they wished they knew then.  Some men stay in the legal lane by getting a new wife in their 20s when they are in their 50s.  But in many ways, that isn’t good.   Nobody escapes intact, and everyone’s lives are ruined in the process. 

This ruin is on such a scale that we can’t deal with it.  So when we find out that our school superintendent is essentially selling his wife for sex-ploits with the world because of a severe porn addiction, and that addiction is taking them into sex with kids in their school, we act surprised.  But when that incident actually happened, most everyone sat on their hands and said nothing about it because deep inside, they were just as guilty.  They didn’t yet do the deed.  But they were thinking about it.  This trend to decriminalize sex with minors is more than just a desire; it’s the direction a society like ours goes when sex, drugs, and reckless behavior are the only things that we identify as proper to be an adult.  So, our values never progress beyond those traits, and we wonder why we have the problems we do.  Well, it all starts by telling kids that “adult content” is a forbidden fruit, and that’s their path to proving they are no longer children.  And we wish we could say to them that when they are 50, 60, and 70, they will want to have held on to their childhoods a lot longer and not be in such a rush to pick one or all of those three things to show the adults they were ready to grow up.  But that is why we have a pedophilia problem. We have baked it into our social order, and until we change that, it will continue to be a massive problem.  Kids don’t have much chance because the adults of their lives never figured it out.  Because they, too, were taught all the wrong things and, as adults, don’t know any better how to behave.  And it’s not just a few people; it’s most people of all ages and classes.  They all have the same fundamental problem: how they entered adulthood, thinking one of those horrible things was the means to get there.  Only to discover they should have held on to their childhoods much longer.  And if they had, they would have been much happier and intellectually sound as older adults than the empty lives they were given to live and never otherwise questioned.
