If we now choose to only accept the constructive and creative contributions made by those without personal flaw or history of social misstep, we will find ourselves in a very narrow alley, indeed.

Albert Einstein, after all, was a serial philanderer, damaging the lives of many of the women in his life and his own children with his selfish actions. Shall we ignore his contributions to our world as punishment?

Wrongs should be prevented and, when they occur, righted. Those caught doing wrong need to be called out, given the chance to apologize, make the appropriate penance, and move on. Figures from the past gain value with further scrutiny into the vagaries of their lives but there is no way to punish them, and we only hurt ourselves when we cast away what good they left behind in an attempt.

What fault is it of the work that its creator is flawed and how do we benefit by this eschewing of the positive light that these fully human people emit?

A good portion of that bath waste water is baby, folks.
