RE: Revenge and punishment

in #philosophy7 years ago

Yes, I am not saying they should walk free but I wonder if with the development of mental understanding, in the future there will be technological solutions to alter, repress or change certain aspects of the brain. Until then, lock them up humanely for to treat them otherwise is to lose humanity in ourselves.

I was just replying to @thatgermandude about the blind societal aspects to revenge and it is closely linked to that of honor killings in some communities.

This is an interesting topic, however horrible, and I am glad that you have taken the time to get into it a bit with me :)

Sort:  

That would make for the rise of an interesting set of options.

Technically we already have interesting options open to us.

I really wish that I had the time to fully immerse myself in this subject with both yourself and @thatgermandude, but I should be working on something else right now. :cP

That and I nuked my voting power over the past 24 hours. ^_^;;;

Incidentally I'd like to take this opportunity to urge readers to resteem this topic (I can only resteem once). Its a very intriguing subject. :c)
