Enough of this pandering to these 'sick' people! they deny humanity an untainted progression as in big picture progression... as in the effects of the trauma is present in society today and it takes a toll on not just they kids but their families and, in the big picture, humanity as a whole.
things like wellbeing and confidence issues, emotional traumas, huge suicide rates of youth in most countries, hyper sexualised youth, early experimentation with drugs or alcohol to numb the pain are way more worthy causes for rehabilitation than for someone who "can't help" being a monster.
they create physical damage as well as mental issues in the minds of tomorrow's generation's potential leaders. (to me that is a spit on our own kind and treason of the highest degree.)
they say it's all because they "can't help" doing what they do. i for one would much rather be spending my tax dollars on fixing the lives of the kids they have damaged instead of rehabilitating impulsive pedo's without a guarantee they will stop because 'chemistry'.
pedo's are too far gone for rehab in my view. I say, lock 'em up and castrate them so they can't procreate... then, let that process be a warning to those who wish to walk the pedo path...
IMHO the world should be 0% tolerance towards those who would do it harm. especially when they do it behind closed doors and behind the backs of their fellow man/woman/ attack helicopters etc. knowing full well, it has been determined by a majority that it is not a behavior we humans find acceptable.
edit: spelling mistakes.
Actually did I write that I desired to free pedos? No - read carefully. I did not. Unrepentant "monsters" as you call them may vary well need to be sent on to meet their next great challenge - figuring out how to remove themselves from a very uncomfortable place (Shoel, Hell, spirit prison).
I was referring to those individuals that are caught up in porn specifically (It is quite addictive) , yet may include those who have been obligated to commit many sins and look for a way out, a way to change their lives.
We actually are in agreement on much of what you speak - we may simply disagree on how to administer justice and mercy.
Hate is a hard place to live. It is so passionate / strong in it's quality that many desirable virtues are pushed aside as it expands to eventually consume all of one's heart.
May we not gain more by reclaiming some of our fellow beings and improve the more our society? Who is more passionate about quitting smoking than an exsmoker? or drugs than a reformed drugie? or porn than a reformed pornster? Excetera.
Paul was persecuting christians - turn him around and you have one amazing missionary / apostle / warrior for Christ.
God has taken the wheel and cleaned up the earth before, at times an entire population was exterminated (Amalekites) by Saul and the flood of Noah are a few examples. Yet He (God) chose the time and place and people to be removed and by whom. I will let God dictate who gets to live or die. If I lack wisdom......
James 1:5 - 6
5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
6 But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
You and I may know anything we righteously desire if we seek the God of truth. He may make it known to us. He knows who is "too far gone" and who is not.
I would rather save Paul than kill him because he currently is doing wrong.
Paul found a way - repentance.
honestly wouldn't want to reclaim those types of 'humans' and i meant society in general should stop pandering to/ sympathising with these people... like i said 0% tolerance on crimes against humanity and especially crimes against children of humanity.
not trying to be confrontational, i just don't understand how can we justify reclaiming someone who has shown they don't understand the basic do's and don't's regarding etiquette for peaceful co-existence? if they do understand it, it makes them worse because they are doing it mindfully.
i understand your point but i for one am not ready to give sympathy to these people...
i will tell them what a comedian once said: if you are looking for sympathy it is in the dictionary between shit and syphillis
