First... if that were possible it should be made illegal.

Second...what if that baby grows up and finds a cure for cancer...aids...or how to extend life indefinitely before he kills?

Please don't think I'm crazy or want to see babies killed.But I was pondering the following question in my head today. If magically and with 100% certainty we could somehow know the minute a baby is born,that he or she is going to someday grow up and murder a person or persons,would it be wrong to put that baby to sleep in a humane way to prevent the murder/murders or let things play out and alllow the inevetible to happen?

This wouldn't be possibly, not even by magic.

Magic is nothing other than being able to harness and exploit cycles and flows of energy independently of matter and channel or direct these cycles and flows in a way which causes particular events to take place or have a specific effect on matter, whether that matter is pure matter, i.e. an inanimate object or matter combined with energy, as is a living entity.

Time itself precludes any possibility of such an event taking place.

Another thing which would preclude such a thing is life itself. This is not just because we are all shaped and influenced by our development, the interaction and relationships of the people who come into and share our lives, those we also meet along the way, the heavy influence on us of our childhood, and so on.

But if by magic you could with certainty predict that a baby would grow to someone who would murder someone why kill it?

Why not simply transform the negative energy into positive energy?

This can go on for fucking ever. OK I kill a kid who would have murdered a guy who would have cured a disease, but then someone who was cured by him now becomes twice as bad as Stalin. That kid kills someone who would have cured a disease later that is ten times worse. But because of the lack of a cure, someone never got the chance to start world war five.

It never stops.
