You can dig as much internet references on man boy love in Greece as much as you want
I actually did not have to dig anything up. These are facts of History and Sociology. If you want to deny these facts simply because they do not fit your belief system, that is your choice.
You are welcome to "dig up" your own evidence to refute History and Sociology. Don't argue with me. Argue with them.
, but you can not tell me for one minute the boys desired it. The men who did it knew it was wrong but justified it with their culture. Anything written back then will most certainly justify the act.

We do have a conscience. We do know good from evil, for the most part. But we still need God's word for guidance. God still sets the standards, not us, not society.
God has taken humanity through stages, for a reason. From the time of Adam and Eve to the time of Moses, humans knew right from wrong, but had no written law from God. We had a conscience then, and we have conscience now. But we still failed miserably. Then God gave the written law to set the standard, but we still failed miserably.
Then came the knew covenant which was foretold in the Old Testament. God sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to die for our sins. Now, if you believe in Jesus Christ, you will receive the Holy Spirit. Then and only then will God be within you, and you will have forgiveness of sin and eternal life too.

Ephesians 1:13 "But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you"
Acts 1:8 "But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you."
John 14:26 "You, however, are controlled not by the sinful nature but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ."
