    – 24 June – 3 July: 16th Annual Conference in New York (United States). Hosted by the Center ILGA Committee, a program of the Lesbian and Gay Community Services Center.
    o Paedofilia is clearly condemned, and pro-paedophilia members of the ILGA are expelled by a motion which is approved by 88% of the members.

    Apparently, it was NOT "end of story".
    It was the "end of the story":

    NAMBLA was expelled [from ILGA] in '94 and a series of amendments were voted by ILGA members to ensure groups condoning paedophilia would not be able to become members of the federation. Our federation has not had any such group since 94. You can find a public statement on that matter under the section “About ILGA” on ilga.org.

      Twelve percent voted no. Did you miss that part? And, if you actually read the story, the driving force behind this was the organization's desire to be approved as an NGO, and they believed they were being turned down because of their association with NAMBLA.

      It reads like it was written for simpletons to buy in - they claim they didn't have procedures in place to prevent an organization like NAMBLA from joining.

      That's dumber than "the dog ate my homework".

        The facts are straightforward. NAMBLA was expelled [from ILGA] in ‘94 and a series of amendments were voted by ILGA members to ensure groups condoning paedophilia would not be able to become members of the federation. Our federation has not had any such group since 94”.

        Of course, the actual facts will not alter the distorted Evangelical insistence of categorising ALL homosexuals as evil abominations to the Lord and closet pedophiles. It’s more congruent with their agenda of hate and demand for conformity to "wholesome family values".

            Yeah, they wanted to be more respectable because they were trying to be approved as an NGO.

            It should be no surprise to anybody that you overshot the runway quite a bit on that one.

              And yet I wrote specifically about how many gays and lesbians would less than happy if IGLA reached out to NAMBLA in an attempt to mend fences over their past betrayal and help them in attempting to obtain respectability once they thought the time is right.

                The fact is that is that at its world conference in New York City in June 1994, ILGA voted by a very large majority to expel NAMBLA. End of story!
                You really are an idiot Tass.

                I provided a slew of quotes from prominent gay leaders who were none too happy about IGLA sacrificing their allies for their own gain. That wasn't my spin but their words. Since I've posted this two or three times in this very thread it is patently obvious you never bothered to once read those posts yet idiotically keep demanding that I provide their "actual words."

                And IGLA only disassociated themselves from NAMBLA after a decade long association when it became politically necessary -- not because they disagreed with them.

                        You reckon? IGLA has not accepted any group condoning pedophilia into the Federations since 94”

                          Yes, because they were seeking recognition as an NGO - you keep leaving that part out.

                          You reckon?
                          It's there on their own website.

                          Yes, they've gotten more media savvy.

                                And since JimL and tassman ally themselves with ILGA, they're supporters of pedophilia as well.
