Think about it logically. That so many people find some fun in reading about or watching bad guys would logically mean said billions of people would also be out slaughtering, raping and thieving if liking a bad guy is immoral.

You are vague about this; if playing an orc is simple childplay, named that way, then yeah, there is no problem. If it involves theft or unnecessary destruction, as the children in Gondor in the fourth age do (as in the New Shadow), then yeah, it is morally wrong.

We are in agreement on this; as you see from the begining of this post, I am actually asking you to prove your own statement that people who entertain certain... delights, will necessary behave in any evil way.
