Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
-- Macbeth, Act 5, Scene 5
Good and difficult question. I might do the same. I didn't do anything to fix the commenting problem you had on my blog, blogger must have, thankfully.
That’s how our earliest ‘settlers’ came down under - the judges thought stealing was wrong (irregardless of circumstances) and decided to send them on their way. Transportation was the word of the day!
Stealing is wrong. I would ask for help. Stealing is something I don't think I could do.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day and week. ♥
Only if you steal from another starving child.
ReplyDeleteOops it should say "Only if you "DON'T" steal from another starving child."

ReplyDeleteYES. Because help isn't always there for those who need it.
ReplyDeleteI don't know, but I'd do it if was the only way I could feed my daughters.
ReplyDeleteIf it was my only choice I wouldn't hesitate. It would be worse to let a child go hungry.
ReplyDeleteAlmost certainly not, though it depends who you steal from, what and why.
ReplyDeleteYou don't know but that you may be stealing from someone who has even less. Find another way to help.

ReplyDeleteIf you have no other way to get food, I think stealing to feed a hungry child is moral, even though it is not legal,
ReplyDeleteTrick question. Stealing is wrong, but so is letting children go hungry.
ReplyDeleteWould that there was absolute right and wrong.
