What about thought crimes?

Thought crimes can remain fully a theological area. They need to be removed from the books of the laws of men.

Murder/pedophilia/physical abuse need to be reported (don't care about robbery and such that aren't physical in nature). Let the laws of men exact punishment for crimes against others and let God worry about whether or not they have been saved by the blood of Jesus - there should be no conflict with this line of reasoning - unless one wants to make a "sharia" type claim where the religion overrides everything else....
