Well, first you were speaking in the abstract, "the next perverted lunatic..." Now you refer to "his followers," so it's hard to really understand what you're saying.
But people have been "programmed" for millions of years, and it was, in fact, ESSENTIAL to the survival of our species. So to refer to this ancient, inborn portion of our psyches as a disease is rather presumptuous, in my opinion. The reason we have it is because people who had it survived.
I do believe that persons who abuse others using such methods should be treated as criminals. But to denigrate those who were abused is inappropriate. Stupid, probably. Insane, probably not. Just my opinion.
Which is more rational, a diety you can see, or one you can't?
Wow, getting deep, unnecessarily deep. So oddly and unnecessarily deep that you are having some problems understanding a very simple concept.
Is my original post really "hard to understand"? Read slowly, I bet you get it.

These seem to come around every few years, sad.
I'm glad this guy is going away, start the countdown for the next perverted lunatic with delusional followers.
