Why would God even care?

Why shouldn't they?


And, I am puzzled just how to rate this "crime" on a one-to-ten
scale--against, murder, rape, child molestation, grand theft, and spitting
on the sidewalk...

Ah, another one who attempts to justify breaking the law by down
playing the relative importance of it.

It's an indication of a person's moral compass, by what point they
consider a law to be "trivial" enough to ignore.


By your logic, we should probably draw a line through all crimes below
the "violent" level, since they are "no big deal" in the grand scheme
of things. Then once those crimes have been ignored, we can then
reclassify all violent crimes as well, and the slippery slope
begins..... It's not such a leap for an ultra liberal ACLU- type
lawyer to interpret the prosecution of someone's criminal actions as
an infringement of some perceived "right".
