here is what i have been trying to get at though (no, i am neither cold nor mean spirited. I am extremely empathetic, but passionate baout my beliefs as well)
Those are VERY different crimes. I even consider murder a lesser crime, because the victim's suffereing is over. Child molestation and rape causes people to have problems for their entire life, starting at a very young age. it is cruelty at its worst. I dont believe that even as a "mistake" that that makes it any lesser. People need to have at least that much control
i am by no means equating a child rapist with a shoplifter or a drunk driver....
