Horrible!

The sad fact is: Rapists are a part of EVERY human’s genetic makeup, along with thieves and murderers.

It must be hard when it is your father, it brings to mind Bosnia and the wholesale rape that occured there to foster just this outcome.

By this, do you mean that, if we were able to know the conceptual details of our entire genealogy back to the very beginning, somewhere along the line at least one of those conceptions would have arisen out of a forcible rape? Is that what you mean?

Or, do you mean to imply that every human (and, more specifically, every male) has the potential to be a rapist because of a genetic propensity for sexual violence if strongly enough stimulated? (Again ditto for thievery and murder.)

Not trying to be a smarta** or pick a fight here. Just trying to understand which line of reasoning your statement flows from.
