Is a Pedophile born that way or is it learned?
That frames it better.

Not sure if matters. Pedophiles cannot have sex with children because statutory rape laws prohibit them. Minors cannot give consent...not only for sex, but for other things, such as contractual relationships. therefore, any sexual contact between a pedo and a minor is, by definition, without consent.
With gays, you are dealing with 2 consenting individuals, so the analogy doesnt work. This isnt about the right of a homosexual to rape another homosexual. I think that is the reason the Pedophile comeback never gains any traction. Same with the sex with animals comeback. I see where you are going, and I get the logic, but it just isnt a great comparison.
