runner I've not thought of an analogy that really fits. About the closest I can come up with a moment is that it's a bit like having a defense force even if you intend to do your best to avoid going to war.

A common thread from a number of non Christians sending their kids to private school is that they want their kids growing up with a better morality that what is taught or not taught at most State schools. I am pleased that your moral relativism does not come into view when talking about child abuse. At least we agree on that absolute!
