Re: Stealing -- absolute or relative
Somebody is making up lies about the objective meaning of stealing?
what objective meaning of stealing? i've never heard of one.
Oh, you mean Glenn Beck again? But I told you I don't listen to him, or Rush Limbaugh. If they happen to say something along the lines of what I'm saying I would have to guess they get it from the same source I do, their conscience.
i'd say no, rather it all comes from a lower region of the human body.
And history too. I could just as easily have made my same argument fifty years ago as now. This idea that stealing is whatever the law says it is would never have been accepted by people fifty years ago.
if the people 50 years ago were as dumb as bricks maybe, the laws have no changed faith. stealing has always been the unlawful taking of someone elses property, using taxes in a way you don't like is not unlawful.
