A little bit of public justice eliminates a lot of private evils.

No it just creates an underground market.

That underground market exists today without the execution of infant rapists.

Better to have the latter.

Ideally there would be multiple layers of theological, social, and political incentives, of which public executions would be a strong one.

I think the origin of your statement is a statist mindset, and the logic following falls in line. Express your statist mindset as you see fit. I'm not condemning it.

I get that.

Is a private execution not enough?

No, it's not.

You might be right

The worst thing in the world is not adults being executed in public for raping infants, it's adults thinking they won't be.

This is very hoppean and I agree

The common sense revolution

If you want domestication (in that form), there are more effective ways. For example, take a look at your own domestication.

I don't understand what you are trying to communicate. Try different words.

My point exactly.

Gay point.
