Pedophiles, or child abusers?

In my opinion, pedophilia is not wrong if one doesn't act on it. It can't really be helped, after all, just like a sexuality.

Theres no proof that it is an actual sexual preference. Nevertheless, they will act on it because they want to have an orgasm. And the Catholic church has been covering up child sexual abuse for years, its not a question of whether or not a priest acted on his urges - its how many acted on their urges with no repercussions.
