“Don’t feel obligated to defend property”

The right to have and hold property is basic to civilization.

In the face of theft, some say “it’s only money” or jewelry, or whatever, but the theft is not just a crime against property or an individual...it’s a crime against civilization.

it’s a crime against civilization.

The proximate harm of all sin is to the sinner
They just don’t know it yet

The harm to others, community, civilization are all secondary concerns
Like throwing a rock in a pond, waves roll out disturbing all around,
But the big “Bloop” is the sinner
