That's assuming Jesus really is a pederast...Walter is not the most reliable source of information. He's not alone, of course. That's sort of a common theme throughout much of the movie...how we assume what we assume is true. Walter may be certain in his mind that Jesus is a pederast, but he was also certain the Big Lebowski could walk. But he was also right about other things. So, who knows? I'm just saying I don't take at face value that Jesus is guilty of what Walter claims.

However we did see the flashback scene where Quintana had to walk house to house in the new neighborhood. So that might be the proof. However, I agree that Walter is not the most reliable source of information, please see my new topic,"Was Smokey Really Over The Line?"http://dudeism.com/smf/index.php?topic=339.0

Is it what the Dude is imagining as Walter tells his story? Is it what Walter sees in his mind? Who says it's "objective reality" at all, especially since such a reality rarely, if ever, exists in TBL.
Maybe we'll never know.
With a record
Had to go door to door and tell everyone he was a pederast
You'll be entering a world of pain..a world of pain!
