Actually, the consequences of my behavior are strong incentives to stay on the straight and narrow. Didn't you get spanked as a kid? I did. I've also been thrown in jail and stood before a judge to explain myself. Whether caught by the law or caught by God, you're caught just the same and if you're smart you learn from your screwups and don't repeat them. I'd love to screw up all the time and kick some lilly white asses, but the consequences keep me from it. i don't think I'm too different than a lot of people.

To suggest a right and a wrong, there has to be an ultimate authority. Here on earth it's govt.


Sorry but I disagree. I don't kill people because I choose not to,not because I'm afraid I'll get caught. I could figure out ways to not get caught. Same thing with using Pot.I quit because I decided it was the wrong thing for me to do,not because I was afraid of getting caught.
