If that's what it takes to stop this, then by all means employ it
Imprisonment for the rest of their lives would stop it, of course, because then they wouldn't be near children. However, I'm all for castration too.
Then again, you're gonna have to slice off more than that to really punish them. After all, many of them use their fingers to snap pornographic pictures (sometimes greed is more of a motivating factor than sick lust). Far too many of them use their fingers to chat online so they can groom and weed out vulnerable underage victims before they engage in any physical act against the child. And then I don't think I have to go into details about my final reason why they should be cut off. Those of us who are old enough understand and those who are too young will understand when they need to.
