so much greater a loss, so much greater a sin,
and this was very, very bad.
As I watched, I realized that being
the cause of another soul's fall from grace is
a much greater sin than any other. Falling
apart at the sight, the man said nothing,
nothing at all. Cowering, I turned away
because I couldn't look as the team moved in
and destroyed him. Time for destruction
now completely over, he was rendered
completely benign. To prey upon children is
the lowest form of evil, and to commit such
acts, is to almost assuredly commit your soul
to hell.
"Silence is equivalent to confession."
The Talmudic Anthology, No. 189, Paragraph 1,
Ketubot, 11, (Judaism)
"Whoever offends an innocent, pure and
faultless person, the evil (of his act)
rebounds on that fool, even as fine dust
thrown against the wind."
Dhammapada, Canto IX, No. 125, Page 51,
(Buddhism)
"He said to his disciples, 'Things that cause
sin will inevitably occur, but woe to the
person through whom they occur. It would
be better for him if a millstone were put
around his neck and he be thrown into the
sea than for him to cause one of these little
brent
