Reply #19: I believe in evil.

I don't ignore the heinous actions that are committed such as genocide, torture, and other things boil down to anything but a very crime against humanity.

However, I don't want people tried on the basis that they are evil. I want them tried on the laws that have been set down to deal with such acts.

I want it that way because as I said, evil is relative. You can point to one end of the scale that seems obvious to all. Then you slide down further, and you find a less black and white case.

You start trying people on their being evil, and someone will try you for some evil act you did. That way lies the Inquisition.
