The same truth is now known about crime; but the understanding and the application of it are just opening upon us. The old and still dominantthought is, as to cause, that a crime is caused by theinscrutable moral free will of the human being, doingor not doing the crime, just as it pleases; absolutelyfree in advance, at any moment of time, to choose ornot to choose the criminal act, and therefore in itself the sole and ultimate cause of crime. Asto treatment, there still are just two traditional measures --- jail, or a fine (for death is nowemployed in rare cases only). But modern science, here as in medicine, recognizes that crimealso (like disease) has natural causes. It need not be asserted for one moment that crime is adisease. But it does have natural causes. And as to treatment, modern science recognizes thatpenal or remedial treatment cannot possibly be indiscriminate and machine- like, but must beadapted to the causes, and to the man as affected by those causes.

The author believes which of the following? Select all correct choices.

A.The dominant thought is that crime is caused by free will

B.Free will is not the only cause of crime

C.Crime is not a disease
