Nope. Kidnapping, torturing and killing an innocent child is grossly unethical. This is neither here nor there. I don't understand why some people insist on making a big deal out of the stupidest most inconsequential things.

This argument strikes me as clearly no better in any way than what it argues against.

I wasn't trying to make an argument about what is or isn't ethical. I was just pointing out that it's ridiculous that some people get so worked about actions that have no effect on them personally, and minimal effect on anyone else, that they feel the need to condemn them.
