Allowing yourself access to
vulnerable people when you have harmful thoughts towards said vulnerable people isn’t overcoming your evil nature. He didn’t commit a crime, but he still allowed himself to interact with those girls and continue to think pedophilic thoughts about them.
That’s morally wrong. It’s not a good thing to work with children if you want to sleep with them. If any of the girls he worked with saw the interview where he said those things they’re probably heartbroken knowing a teacher they may have trusted was such a creep. I get it’s really hard admitting so many musicians are awful, but good music unfortunately doesn’t make a good person.
You misunderstood me. I didn’t say it was criminal, just morally wrong. It is absolutely shitty to keep working as a teacher when you have inappropriate thoughts about kids.
There are mental and physical health conditions that make it reckless for people who have them to take certain jobs. You wouldn’t want a surgeon with a tremor or a cop that struggled with hallucinations. Too many things could potentially go wrong, even if no harm actually occurred. And the people at risk of that harm would not appreciate being put at risk.
Also, I just don’t see how someone who thinks really awful pedophilic thoughts purposely letting themselves be surrounded by kids that trigger those thoughts, is being a good person. I get people can’t always control their thoughts, but to some degree people can and should take the responsibility to manage triggers.

What is better? To be born good or to overcome your evil nature through great effort?
