Correlation Between Child Abuse and Homosexuality

I was reading a news article online from the Family Research Council website "The Connection between Homosexuality and Child Sexual Abuse,"
http://www.frc.org/get.cfm?i=WA03I35#WA03I35 and I have read some interesting findings, that I think everybody should be aware of. So, I thought that I would share it with our class. In a specific case regarding a boy's scout leader molesting boys, scholars identified these repressed, unnatural desires performed by pedophiles may have been abused and acted these behaviors on young boys. Studies also indicate that most men are pedophiles and more than likely are homosexual individuals who prefer males as young as fifteen years old.

After reading this article, the findings has opened my eyes and has definitely pesuaded me that these things are prone to happen. If this is a true, as researchers and scholars describe in this article, then should homosexuals (males) have the right to adopt children ? Furthermore, is this issue and research publically known and presented to policy makers? I think further investigation should be made and children should protected.
