Thou shall not lie but what do you say to a kid who believes in Santa, or to a girl who plans to throw a surprise birthday party for her mom. Do you tell a person they are a little over weight? I don't think so, you lie. Its something we humans can't get away from. This is why I sometimes think someone created the bible just to keep us in check.
Thou should not steal but what do you say to a homeless man who is starving, or to a thirteen year old boy who is poor, staring down at a hot piece of steak on the grill. I heard once of a man who robbed a store just for diapers and milk formula. A lot of people see things but never really put themselves in the perspective of it.
Its like blaming a student for hitting another student without knowing who started. Looking from outside in and not from inside out. I see this all the time. I'm pretty fair, and on the fence. I put myself in a person's shoes because I understand that motives colors the means. By the way, I heard that in my persuasion class.
I even put myself in the shoes of a rapist, I know its nuts but I do. I picture the rapist being some guy who's having a hard time with finding sex. I'm not justifying or saying that a guy should be able to rape women if he has a reason to rape women, I'm saying that I know why he's raping women.
He wouldn't harm a fly, yeah right. I bet if he was offered a million bucks he would kill the fly, squash it and all. That's how powerful money is and money is only powerful because it buys what's needed to survive.
People lie and say that certain things work for you, like pro active. Let's just put our selves in their shoes, what if pro active really did work. People would be able to use it one time and never have to buy it again, you think Pro Active want that? The answer is no. They want you to keep coming back.
We humans are funny beings. I like to observe things. This one time it was me and another person on the bus, a women. I pretended to drop my wallet without knowing and she said nothing. I laughed so hard inside because I knew if she happened to be on the bus with other people, she would have said something just to get brownie points for being a good samaritan.
Let's see what happens when there's a bus full of people. I try this and of course, about four people yelled at me, "You're wallet sir." Oh thanks, I didn't even realize it. By the way, I just lied, but that was to prove a pont. Do I go to hell for that?
I hate it when I actually do be nice, go out of my way to do a good deed but never have it happen to me. I lost my wallet with all of my info and no one bothered to give it back. Lost my phone, lost my harddrive. But I returned about, six phones, three wallets and many flashdrives and storage devices other students had left inside of computers.
Feelings has a lot to do with it at times. I know how it feels to lose all of your school work, papers, notes, pictures so I return things like that. I know how it feels to lose money when you have something to pay that's important so I return things like that. What about a person who never had his things stolen, he would probably not return them because he doesn't know how it feels. Or then again, maybe he will because it hasn't happened to him.
I can't kill anyone. The consequences are too big. But who thinks about that when revenge is on your mind, and a family member is shot and killed, in front of your face. The motives colors the means.
Survival, feelings, to make one self look good around others are....well I'm not gonna tell you why.
