Stealing is stealing, no exceptions. Still there are some good causes for stealing though. If you're starving you're probably going to do whatever it takes to get some food. (And you probably won't think about asking either.) Still this was gas, so I'm clueless...

Its easy to have morals when you live in a rich western country, have a good job, a nice house and can take a holiday once a year. These people don't have that luxery.

Lol!,,,you were in such a blind hurry to post that one, you forgot to close your font tag!

If my family and I die, due to starvation because I would not steal...the Lord shall receive our souls unto himself.

Faith is an important aspect of a Christian's life.

The scriptures point to numerous occasions where He took care of those that believe in Him.

I do believe there are far more occasions where he didnt take care of those that believed in him.

But, if you believed as Larry and many here do, even those who have died have been taken care of. They have been taken into His loving arms and are in eternal peace with God.

Perhaps, but let us keep in mind that there is no prove at all that there is a god. I think everybody can believe what they want but to put the lives of the people you love at risk because of completly unfounded believe that a greater entity will take care of them is a bit strange.

I cannot convince anyone that there is a God.

Only the Holy Spirit has that power.
And once you have been told by that Spirit,
then nothing can make you doubt.

The problem is, most people never care enough to ask...or are afraid of the answer, as that would mean that they now had the knowledge, and to act against that knowledge is worse than never knowing.

Thus the term, ignorance is bliss.

Larry, this is not a flippant question. Would you kill someone to protect your family?
