BBC News: Pedophiles’ brains ‘different’
We have just begun to understand ourselves, how our brains and our minds work. Psychology and neuro sciences are pretty young.
Chemical imbalance, a small injury or a tumor can totally change your personality - your desires and moral judgement.
I think neither our justice system or society care about these insights. We often consider terrible things like Pedophilia a choice. In some cases it might be - but we are all slaves to our brains. Even ‘normal’ people can totally run amok when their brains get whacked.
We need more science on this, better laws and understanding of ourselves. In this area there are no simple answers.
