    It does. Pedophilia is another form of fornication. Because fornication is any sexual contact outside of marriage. And, fornication is a sin (1 Corinthians 5:12).

    I don't know but it is evil in any case.

    Webster’s Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary defines “pedophilia” as “sexual perversion in which children are the preferred sexual object.” Aspects of this practice are condemned at Deuteronomy 23:17, 18.

    The Bible says that fornicators who do not repent will be cast into the lake of fire. Revelation 21: 8

    Fornication is every kind of ilicit sexual relation

    Pedophilia is also. Example: Is it normal to suck an orange or any other fruit that is green? Therefore, it is sin.
