if you got wind he was considering this theft, what (non religious) argument could you use that would have any impact on him
[/ QUOTE ]
What is it you want, exactly? A reason why stealing for reasons other than sustaining life is 'wrong'? If so, then the reason is becasue it's bad for society.
Or do you want an argument you can use to prevent a friend from stealing for fun? Try something like:
- Your kids will think less of you.
- Your kids will grow up stealing, too
- You wouldn't want someone to steal from you, so don't do it yourself
- It's wrong to steal
Or do you want something that satisfies both logical analysis and is easily consumed by someone uninterested in logic? I guess there is no such thing. Why do you need it, anyway?
