content: pedophilia isn't exclusive to one culture. the only culture that i'd say is wholly defined by pedophilia would be the Etoro and related Tazmanian groups.  there have been degenerates in every culture, including the Greeks, that doesn't take away the accomplishments of the Greeks.  As for the contrast between Japanese and Jewish culture, I'd say they are about as different as two cultures can be. Linguistically, architecturally, philosophically, religiously, they really have nothing of significance in common.
