Why would you compare pedophilia to homosexuality? One is a form of abuse and the other is a lifestyle choice that has 0 negative effects to anyone. They have nothing in common and you should be ashamed of yourself to even try to make such a comparison.

i'm beginning to worry about your literacy
the comparison is related to "choice", not to the relative rightness or wrongness. i said literally a sentence later that homosexuality isn't wrong in the first place
the point is to provide an example of a sexual preference that we all can agree is wrong. pedophilia is an example of this. that being the case, whether or not someone chooses to be a pedophile really doesn't matter. even if it is out of their control, it's wrong and they should be held accountable for any actions taken
whether homosexuality is wrong or not is a matter of consternation within christianity. as i've already said, it's clearly not wrong on an ethical or legal level. it's consensual. but if christianity were to deem it "wrong", then to those that agree it is wrong, it wouldn't matter whether it's a choice or not.
that being the case, the whole argument over whether homosexuality is a choice or not is largely beside the point
