I see, nevermind my post than.
I don't think many things top systematic murder of a people based on nothing more than their beliefs. Raping children is pretty close but you said distributor, distributing child porn is despicable but it's not worse than the actual act of raping or killing millions of people. |

And think of this. Hitler was responsible for the deaths of millions of people. While Charles Manson was responsible for far fewer deaths, he would have probably caused as many as Hitler had he the chance. I don't think we should rate killers by their statistics. It's kind of a situation where it's best not to give them the satisfaction, I guess. Let's just all agree that certain things (rape, murder, bubble gum flavored children's Tylenol) are just really bad and it's not really necessary to compare them. At least not on such a grand scale. Obviously the courts need to do so to administer punishments, but the degrees to which these things are to be weighed is an issue too complex and obscure for us to consider in our daily lives. As long as we understand that it's bad...we're all set.

While Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot, etc were undoubtedly pure evil, I still put these child molesters ahead of them on this list, just hear me out. There's no doubt that what Hitler did was horrific, but in his mind, he thought he was doing what was right. In his eyes, he was purifying the earth. While it is obvious that he was wrong, in his eyes he wasn't. Now, child pornography/molesters. There is no way to justify these actions. There is no one who can try to say that this is okay to do. Now both the genocidal maniacs and the child molesters deserve to burn in hell. I'm in no way condoning the actions of Hitler, Stalin, etc, and it may be comparing apples to oranges, but I'm just trying to show my train of thought on the subject. |
