Seems ridiculous. Anyone can become a pedophile and anyone can repent from being a pedophile. This evil is common to humanity and if it was just a matter of being born with it, that means they would be pedophiles from birth---if they became pedophiles later in life, that was more due to personal choice and environment. But pornography especially. Almost all pedophiles are addicted to pornography. Porn changes users' sexual tastes based on what they watch, as porn makes a powerful imprint on the brain from the very first viewing---and it's an escalating addiction. You need progressively more degenerate forms to constantly satisfy your impulse. People act out what they constantly see and fill their minds with, it's called copycat crime. There was a case of two small children accidentally seeing their parent's hardcore BDSM pornography. The children then used a coathanger to penetrate and accidentally kill their baby brother. Children are designed to act out the examples they see. Obviously, they aren't at fault. These boys will be scarred forever thanks to their parents' malicious sexual fetishes (the watchword of BDSM is "malice"). But adults are also heavily influenced by what they constantly fill their minds with. I'd say that accounts for most pedophilia out there. Pedophilia was a much smaller issue before pornography became legal.
I was just saying that before the sexual revolution and before the tolerance of pornography, it was more rare due to the fact that porn often changes sexual tastes to more extreme forms (https://fightthenewdrug.org/how-porn-affects-sexual-tastes/) and can literally create pedophiles from people who used to be disgusted by it.

Pedophilia has always been around. You just didn't hear about it much before the Information Age.
