Default Re: So Why is Stealing Wrong Again?

No, this isn't a sad commentary on our "society." Most people think that the wretched people have a lien on the better off. That is the sad thing. You are also mistaking compassion. It is entirely possible to have compassion for others and help them out while recognizing there is no obligation to do so. Also, compassion is impossible in a "society" that embraces altruism.
