Two more items from "Uncle Syd's Big Book of Bullshit" (Revised 2017) Oxford University Press.
"One cannot steal which is freely given."
I gave alms today while hauling my laundry in. Yes you warned me you were all correct. It was a rather profoundly stupid act. However to the point. I did give alms to a person that gave fictions for it.
Her specifics were fictions, but the need was real. I always feel that it would not be asked for if not needed.
The need was real. So was the giving.
She did not steal because I wanted her to have it. There was no "Con" enacted. Much digital ink spilled for a dollar. Perhaps.
Now the punch-line, and t-shirt design.
"Morality is the simplest complication there is".
