That's not the debate though.

Is life really black and white like that though?

I would say the same for murderers. It's not viewed as an illness, but clearly they have something wrong with them.

I do believe in rehabilitation, although agree the risks are very high.

My point being, take away peodophillia, that society views things differently despite illnesses. As humans we can't help our emotions and how we feel on such subjects.

They need help as much as anyone, but it's generally not viewed that way
