Why be good?

[Huggy Bear]

By stating the man needs treatment you acknowledge that his thoughts are clearly wrong.

Here is the question, would you be comfortable leaving him alone with a child.....

His thoughts are about doing wrong things, but they aren't crimes, or immoral acts.    And no, I wouldn't leave him a lone with a child. 

I would consider that to be doing a disservice to both he and the child.  I wouldn't give vodka to a recovering alcoholic either.  Or a cake to a diabetic.

However, if we condemn him before he acts, how likely do think it is that he will seek treatment?  And how likely do you think it will be that he would tell anyone that he should not be left alone with a child?  The point is that rather than condemn him for his thoughts and declare him a bad man, one should help him to resist.  And part of helping is not condemning him for having thoughts.

Then you contradict yourself.

Condemn a man in advance of his actions and you behave immorally yourself,

By not being able to trust him with a child, you are clearly condemning (DEFINITION: to express an unfavorable or adverse judgment on; indicate strong disapproval of; censure.) him based on his thoughts. Besides you wouldn't give alcohol to an alcoholic because he has been PROVEN to have a problem with alcohol...
