What Would You Do (WWYD)?

[AndrésC64]

Imagine you have two children and you raised to them both the best that you could. You taught them right from wrong and how they should love each other. One day, you see one of your kids raping and beating the other kid. Would you just watch? They do have free will after all, and you taught them right from wrong, so it's their choice, right? Would it be wrong for you to interfere with the free will of your child who is doing the raping?

You intervene and call the authorities. We may have free will. How ever we have something called consequences and the law. You cannot rape someone or watch someone be raped and not contact authorities. That is against the law and absolutely just a horribly evil and unethical thing to do. I think this question is odd and if it truly needs to be asked this world is in even more danger than I believed it was 2 minutes ago. We get questions like this and laws passed to release criminals without bail. Laws to urge police officers to stand down. Good luck y’all…

Suddenly the shit kid is going to go missing. Get the good one into therapy.

I don't abide that, especially not under my roof. I don't give a fuck who you are, you rape someone I care about and I will kill you. There is nothing under heaven that will save you.

Obviously not "best you could". But "free will" doesn't mean "no destiny," just look at Able and Cain.

Somethings in the world MUST happen, regardless of if they are good or evil. The lion must chase and kill it's prey regardless of what vegans bitch about, for example.

But law and order is a thing too and where animals take savagery as "nature" we humans work to prevent it and care for the sick.

[AndrésC64]

What do you mean "obviously not best you could"? How the fuck do you know that? And if you are going to claim that the parents didn't raise the children the best they could, what does that say about God who is the parent of everyone? If the parents are responsible for their children, then so is God. That makes God responsible for the rapist Even more so than the parent. Because God knew for an absolute fact that it was going to happen. The parents didn't.

Who mentioned destiny, except for you? But now that you have, so you're saying that it's that child's destiny to get raped? The other child's destiny to be a rapist?

[AviatorTom]

Yes, they have free will, and fee will comes with responsibility... it doesn't mean they can do whatever they want with no consequences.

If I saw my kid raping another, I would step in, break it up, and have a nasty talk with them.

[AndrésC64]

If you would step in and break it up, why doesn't god? You were doing it for good and moral reasons. But God chooses not to. Don't you think that standing back and watching as one of your children beat and raped another of your children is a disgusting thing to do? What kind of a parent would do that?

[AviatorTom]

@AndrésC64 Maybe God IS breaking it up, through me.

[AndrésC64]

How could he be breaking it up if it still happening?

[menina]

I would do something to stop my kid and to me it wouldn't be wrong to interfere since they were doing the wrong thing. If I'm their mother, I must be able to talk to them when they're making a mistake.

[sunflower00]

Wtf? I would rip them off the other child and call the police and get them locked up for life. This is a messed up thing to even imagine

[OfDeath]

We live in a society which has good reason to outlaw such behavior. I would stop the rapist child and turn them in to the authorities.

[MrJMM]

… wtf? I would call the authorities and stop it from happening.
