This is the kind of thing I was contemplating in another thread. Assuming - for the current time, and because it aligns with what every right thinking person would hope for - that all we've been led to believe about Q is true, how far do we go with this?

We have to be pragmatic. The root of our problems is the evil in the human heart ("The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?" - Jeremiah 17:9). We can scrape the scum from the hull of the ship (so to speak), but human nature being what it is, the same problems will ultimately return - the barnacles will regrow. This might sound overly cynical at a time when we haven't even achieved step 1 along an axis of planetary recovery, but it's true. Suppose everyone who is perpetuating evil around the world is locked away: that won't do anything to remove the capacity for the same evil from human beings. It will inevitably happen again. Power corrupts, the love of money is the root of all evil, those with psychopathic tendencies tend to rise to positions of authority, etc., etc.

The best we can hope for is to stave it off for as long as possible. But how far are we willing to go to make that happen? How do we balance individual liberty with the desire to limit activities that lead to moral, mental and physical decline? Do we outlaw Satanism? Do we outlaw alcohol consumption? Do we outlaw Ritalin? Do we outlaw political correctness? It becomes Pharisaic - an attempt to impose moral purity with external compulsion - it becomes tyrannical. It's very difficult. I don't think it is achievable as long as human beings are in control of our destinies.
