thou shall not steal and corruption in the government

[chris_bern]

---

majority of the philippines population are christians and the ten commandment states "thou shall not steal", i think that's no. 8.

but why is this country, especially the government so brave in going against this law?

not just the government, but many other common people. are we losing religion? or is it just we simply don't bother following these so-called commandments?

that's because people who work in the government are just like US ordinary people committing mistakes.. all of it have personal reasons ngano mangawat ang isa ka tao.

if they fear God, wala na gyud mag politician.. but they see it as a good investment man gud..

to these people, being in politics is good business.. and its booming.. lol

seriously... what do u think of politicians? Evil?

That is why the State (govt) and the Church kay separate entities kay they both work in different ways. Being in politics isn't a question for religion. Religion has nothing to do with what they are doing. It's a question of faith, of moral. So please do not include religion with regard to these political crimes or whatsoever harsh term we can associate with that.

I am referring to those who are corrupt and with the intention to steal rather than "serve"..

as is i stated "not just the government, but many other common people. are we losing religion? or is it just we simply don't bother following these so-called commandments?", though the title deals heavily with people in the gov't.

guys, i'll just request for closure of this thread kay religious discussion man jud ni and human nature. i'll just open a new one sa general section.
