Show me the scripture that would apply to embezzling money from employees' 401k's.

Thou shalt not steal.

That's about the easiest biblical question anyone has ever asked me.

Maybe you missed my point. There is no specific mention of 401k's in the Bible, just as there is no specific mention of the ordination of homosexual priests. But just as we can reasonably conclude from the Scriptural admonition against stealing that embezzling from 401k's is wrong, we can also conclude from Scriptural admonitions against sodomy that the ordination of priests with same-sex attraction is wrong.

Just because something isn't explicitly mentioned in Scripture doesn't necessarily make it right or wrong.
