So if us all being born into solitary confinement would prevent child rape 100%, why don't you think being born into solitary confinement would be a better option? Are you saying you support child rape because you don't support us all being imprisoned in such a way that would prevent It?

I do think us all being born into solitary confinement would be a better option.

Really? You think it would be better if we were all born into individual little prison cells where we spent the rest of our lives?

Wow, ok lol. I don't understand that position, so I guess you won't be able to understand mine either. So for everyone else who may be reading and thinks the lifelong prison scenario wouldn't be a better option than allowing freedom (and all the good and bad that may come of such freedom), this is for you:

Hopefully you can understand the concept of thinking free will is overall a good thing, even though some bad things may come of it. Just as you think freedom itself is overall a good thing, even though bad things may come of it.

Yes, terrible things can come as a result of free will. It means people have the ability to rape and kill if they so choose to. But many very good things can come as a result of free will too - Our ability to freely love. To have rational thought and understanding. To choose to do good deeds for each other. To be human. Those are all good things.
