Pedophilia: Sacred Ritual & Civil Right?

A man accused of sexually assaulting nine boys with physical or mental disabilities told a judge that having sex with children is a sacred ritual protected by civil rights laws.

Phillip Distasio, who said he is the leader of a church called Arcadian Fields Ministries, represented himself at his pretrial hearing. He is charged with 74 counts including rape, pandering obscenity to minors and corrupting another with drugs.

"I'm a pedophile. I've been a pedophile for 20 years," he said in Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court. "The only reason I'm charged with rape is that no one believes a child can consent to sex. The role of my ministry is to get these cases out of the courtrooms."

So he's a pedophile and he's proud of it!
He's coming out of the closet and saying that he's been a pedophile for 20 years and that it's natural, even sacred and that it's his right!
Now, I know all this reminds me of another "natural" thingie a lot of people have been going on about, but I just can't put my finger on it :P
This other thing was also considered, just like pedophilia, as some sort of mental disorder until quite recently, but now suddenly it's quite normal, strange huh?, but well, I still can't remember what it is.
Maybe you know what I'm talking about?
