TD_washingtonredskins Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Stealing. Whether people steal information, time (like I am right now being that I'm at work), services, or goods (movies, music, etc.), it happens every minute of every day and no one really believes that they are doing anything all that wrong.

DCsportsfan53 Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Trying to figure out a way to get a medical marajuana card for the sole purpose of "liking to smoke." Remind me which passage in the bible talks about the evils of ingesting marijuana again, I seem to have forgotten which one it is. Mine would be just general greed and devotion to objects. Edit: Foredhead you sneaky bastige, now I know why you put that in there, I forgot that was his thread! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotSoSuper Posted November 7, 2011 Author Share Posted November 7, 2011 Alright thanks i used divorce. Next question, Sometimes, but not always, cultural differeces can, from time to time, harm people. They can even stop a society from being inclusive and just. Should we celebrate those differences? Why or why not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TD_washingtonredskins Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Do you think that the ES community doing your homework is "an activity in the American culture that people practice without much of a thought even though it goes against biblical/moral teachings?"

Mine would be just general greed and devotion to objects. Ridgemont 11:23; And Mr Hand spaketh unto Spicoli 'What are you, people? On dope?" Seriously, if you missed it, it was a reference to an old thread of his. ---------- Post added November-7th-2011 at 04:15 PM ---------- Well I needed an example of one then I elaborated on it Yeah dude, all kidding aside, it now feels like you're trying to get us to do your homework for you. Maybe you should pay more attention in class. And for Christ's sake, this is a why or why not question. It's open ended, open to your opinion. Those are easy.

TD_washingtonredskins Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 OK another one...hypothetically, of course: If a train left a station at San Diego traveling 88 miles per hour into a 3 mile per hour headwind and another train left Ontario at 76 miles per hour into a 16 mile per hour tailwind, how long would it take for those trains to serve dinner?

Riggo-toni Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 I am not sure where you're going with this, but using the lords name in vain. For explain, "OMG" In Israelite theology, it's not saying things like OMG, but rather taking the actual name of YHWH in vain. The ban on graven (cast/molded) images. Look up iconoclast.
