Amazon Sells a Paedophile Book....

No history doesn't come into it.

You're saying it's fine because it was practised by the majority at the time, so therefore if it becomes highly practised again it should be equally fine.

He's not saying that at all.

The "wrongness" of an act should not change simply by it being more common.

Whilst this is off topic, surely the definition of what is morally acceptable is that which is practised by the majority?

This is freedom of speech/expression gone way too far. I'm all for freedom of speech, but in this case Amazon should really draw the line.
Quite sickening really considering this author is promoting his ideas and encouraging other paedo's to openly practice paedophilia.

So are you for, or against freedom of speech?

What's your point? That freedom is relative and no-one is totally free? Well, thanks for the salient reminder. Of course no-one is 100% free, that would induce anarchy. Restrictions are in place for a reason. My point was purely echoing Splodge's inasmuch as it's ridiculous to say you're all for freedom of speech when you're clearly not.

You mean it would induce chaos. Anarchy just means there is no government/ruler, and it's interesting that people conflate anarchy with chaos.
