When a dog acts viciously we assume the reason is poor treatment and training by its owner. When a person acts criminally we look for the explanation in his brain, blood, and urine. When will psychiatrists begin testifying to the incompetence of schizophrenic pit bulls?

Morally decayed people despise "overly simple" answers... they are creatures who love to hide their immorality in byzantine complexity. If someone complains that an answer you give to a moral question is "too simple", rest assured, they have something they want to hide in the small print.
