Most people with any decent sence of judgement can tell the difference between what is 'right' and what is 'wrong'. For instance, giving money to poor people: right! Taking money from poor people: wrong. But; what happens if we do a classic Robin Hood and take from the right to give to the poor? Is this right, or has Robin crossed the line?
Telling the difference between moral and immoral is like telling a fake designer bag: sometimes easy, sometimes hard, but there are always signs. For instance: is it leather? is it in proportion? would you want people to see you with it? If the answer is no, then don't do it. In life, the warning signs include; would it be ok if someone caught me? Could i tell my friends/boyfriend about this? Crossing the line in this case is buying the fake bag whilst knowing perfectly well it's a fake. Or, getting off with a friends 'ex', knowing very well you have no feelings for him, and your friend does. And using the excuse 'I didn't know i was doing anything wrong' isn't acceptable, because, like with the knockoff back, the signs are out there.
Ok, so everyones hopped over this mysterious line in their life, maybe a handful of times. But is loitering around the fast fading line ok? As long as you say sorry? No. This deserves an asbo. This impares judgement of right/wrong, good/bad, fake/genuine. What may seem OK is infact very very very NOT ok. So, we're talking pretty largely here, boyfriend stealing, cheating in school, eating the last muffin, buying the fake bag, but temptation is everywhere. But the thing to remember is, is really worth it? How long will this last? Is it really for the best? What will my friends/family say? And perhaps most importantly... will it go with my shoes?
