Late-breaking news on this topic.
I'm watching a Nova documentary, the Science of Evil, I'm right at the bit where a priest has been asked by Jeffery Dahmer to baptize him--this would cleanse him of all sins!--and he is struggling with this. He is meeting with Dahmer, and feeling a connection with him, connecting with his humanity.
Haven't seen how this turns out, but I don't buy it. I don't think sociopaths have humanity in them.
