Well, stealing is definitely one of the worst sins, much worse than things like spiritual pride, judgmentalism, or slander. I think that we should put all the traditional sins on a chart, assigning value numbers to them, and if you ever get over a certain number, God won't forgive you.
Perhaps we can make a way for people to earn back their forgiveness, by going to church at the rate and over the number of years we feel God requires. If it were up to me, they would have to go every week until they died to be forgiven for stealing.
I say, 100 years for stealing, 20 for murder, 10 for traffic violations, 5 for downloading copyrighted music, 1 for yelling at your mother, two weeks for blasphemy, one week for intolerance, and wave at the preacher as you pass him in the grocery for thinking I am so much better than other folks.
But I am open to adjust those values, what do you think? One thing I know, I am not for that stupid idea of God forgiving you just because you ask for forgiveness. I won't play that way. You have to prove to
me that you deserve forgiveness. We need to keep a list on people we know are sinners and check things off one by one before we let them be forgiven. It's only fair.
I think this might be a good use for all those cameras you see at traffic lights and drug stores and such. We could put them in the churches too and use them as proof of sins vs. attendance, and set up a spreadsheet. Ultra-Hal might be adapted to help with that.
It could be done. It's certainly needed.
