To be honest, I'd always really hoped that the main thing stopping people from raping and molesting was more than "if I get caught, it will be bad."

That's a five-year-old's level of reasoning. Shouldn't most adults be operating at the level of "I shouldn't do this because it is morally repugnant, owing to the effect it would have on my victim"?

And now, for the more frightening thought: what if most adults are operating on that higher level of morality and there's a huge segment of people with pedophilic desires, who don't act on them because it's self-evidently loving deplorable to do so? That's a fairly disturbing thought as well!
