Many of us judge that as unacceptable:
- "You have a God who either sends child rapists to rape children or you have a God who simply watches it and says, 'When you're done, I'm going to punish you' .. If I were in a situation where I could stop a person from raping a child, I would. That's the difference between me and your God." - Tracie Harris
Why wouldn't I want a will that always exhorted me to do the right thing, and why wouldn't I want everybody else to only want to do what is kind and just?
What we have are primitive urges that once served our ancestors survive and reproduce, which manifest in us today as urges to rape, steal, and murder. Today, we pit our sense of reason and our moral compass against these urges, but sometimes, in some people, the animal prevails and manifests as what are now considered crimes. Is that really something an intelligent designer would create, or something that a blind process would generate as man transitions from a savage state to a civilized one over millennia, and cultural evolution superimposes itself on the result of earlier biological evolution.
Christianity deals with this by saying that God gives us free will and implies that it is a gift even though it is the downfall of many people - alcoholics, pedophiles, con men, etc. - and according to Christianity's own doctrine, will result in most souls burning forever. That's hardly a gift.
I've spent decades trying to put the latter in charge of the former, and to help my children do the same for themselves. If I could turn a dial and set the will to only want the good in them or me, I would - what many Christians derogatorily refer to as being a robot. Such a person would be happy, making that the gift, not free will. A god that wanted the to be good and happy would have given us that gift, not the freedom to act on destructive urges.
So, we do the next best thing and try to condition ourselves and our children to want to conform to a narrow set of desires. It's the closest that we can come to making them good, happy, "robots."
You wouldn't, not in the Christian sense of retributive justice, which says that bad behavior should lead to suffering, which, with the doctrine of free will, is said to justify eternal torture for unwashed sin.
A more enlightened approach says that such people should be removed from the streets if they are a danger, should lose their freedom as a disincentive to not repeat the crime and to others to not commit it in the first place, and where possible, rehabilitation. The ideas of responsibility and retribution don't enter in it - just minimizing crime and maximizing public safety.
