<<<If you see a man trying to rape a child, I suppose you'd tell yourself that Christ said not to resist evil?>>> To live a good life is not easy. Most people (the vast majority) would like to live a good life, but it is not easy to define what is good and what is bad. There is the obvious good and bad and even there, there is debate. There are many ways to stop people from raping children but even there remedies could be extreme. I am positive there are people that would want to exterminate even those who they think are even thinking about the subject. For good people to do no harm is not a bad place to start. All people who go on crusades think they they are good people. I can't imagine someone saying I am a bad person and I am going to enlist other bad people to go on a crusade for bad reasons. The road to hell is paved with great intentions. Killing all the bad people is not possible - at least not for us as human beings. Maybe God can do it, but certainly we can't. If we were to do it, just imagine all the lawyers you would need to make sure you don't kill too many innocent people. There is a solution, but killing is not one of them.
