RE: Morality

August 31, 2011 at 8:33 am

I do not fear hell nor do I fear death......

What I do fear is the mental, physical repercussions of my actions in the real world.

I know it is wrong to steal not because God said its wrong to but because I know I wouldn't want to be stolen from therefore I practice what I preach.

The problem you have with a specific divine law such as "thou shall not steal" is.... what if you steal food or money from someone who has plenty and won't give it willingly to feed your family who are starving through no fault of your own? Does that same law apply? Who are we to break such a law commanded by God, no matter the reason?

Kind Regards,

Citereh
