[quote name='BigB']Wow Soulyogurt, that was a very well thought out, articulated response. Something I'm not used to seeing around here, thank you. But, I must rebut. If you don't mind. While I agree with most of your thoughts, I would disagree completely when you say society is held together by a mutual set of morals. I would say our society is held together by fear and greed. The fact is there are people out there raping and killing, and there are definattly people out there stealing. On a much larger scale than a couple of people ripping off Wal-Mart for $30. I really don't have the time or the inclination to list the immoral habits of Wal-Mart but trust me, there are many. I will say day-to-day consumerisiom is very immoral as well. So, unless you live on a commune, or you live with the Amish I'm sure you have moral issues as well.
And if I offened anybody by me last post, I'm sorry.[/QUOTE]
I wasn't personally offended by your last post, but when you start your argument with "You guys are all gay", you pretty much reduce your own credibility to zero.
Your second post, the one I quoted above, is more civil, and while I don't agree with everything you say, the tone makes me much more inclined to consider your opinion than the first post you made. Without bringing the Wal-Mart corporation into questions of morality in society, I would say that while there are a lot of people out there stealing (and much worse), we should all be glad that our society also contains people who do care about morals and do try to do the right thing, such as the people who posted opinions to that effect already in this thread.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that just because there are immoral people out there, that doesn't make it all right to just throw up your hands and say everybody's doing it, so I will too.
