Nowhere is everywhere. Everywhere is somewhere. You are somewhere. Therefore: you are here. Welcome to Nowhere.

- What are you doing here? You should be reading the blog. That's what's going to tell you about me. Not this little column. If you really want to find out more about me, I suggest we hang out sometime. I like inconvenient relationships. They take time, which means they are important. This is something our society has forgotten. So let's go for coffee.

No.
the good result doesnt justify the sin.
But it also doesnt make the resulting good, bad. The result is still good.
The act was the thing that ws bad
I think Jason had you at youth.....
So taking Jason's point of view, evil is always the product of sin? There can never be a good product of sin? Can you not make someone feel good by telling a lie? Yes, some are more obvious bad outcomes than others, but still, there are loopholes in both arguments. Just because someone sins it doesn't mean that there will necesarily be a bad product/outcome from it. Maybe the end doesn't justify the means, but the end can make the means much much better.
the argument was about if you had a child out of wedlock would it be considerd baggage. or evil.
in that case no of course not
Ah, but the other one I thought of was if there was a crazy murderer running after someone and you knew where they were hiding. The murderer says which way did they go and you lie. As a result, the murderer goes the wrong way and the other person lives instead of dies. You lied. Which is the lesser of two evils. Which result was good?
why are some people way too frickin' closed minded. *rolls eyes* grow up from your immature way of thinking and think OUT OF THE BOX FOR ONCE!
and i'm not saying that it's you teri.
