Bambi, allow me to provide you a hypothetical situation.
Let's suppose it's evening, during a violent storm. You tell Professor Bessemer that the bridge over Hell's Mouth Canyon is out, and that he should warn passing motorists because they won't be able to see the damage in the storm.
A little while later, you hear him telling motorists, "You should cruise down over the Hell's Mouth Canyon bridge tonight, I hear the view is FAR OUT!"
He's not trying to kill people off, he just misunderstood what you told him over the gale-force winds.
Now, I agree, you are not responsible for his misunderstanding. Nor are you responsible for what happened
before you knew of his misunderstanding.
What if you now stand idly by,
knowing that he's telling people the wrong thing, and do nothing? Would you not now be complicit in the deaths of the people Professor Bessemer sends into the chasm? Would you not now be subject,
under your stated beliefs, to having three times that evil visited upon you?
