[JC Lawrence:]
:There is a wonderful old quote, which I wish I could remember, but I'm
:away from my dictionaries and libraries here at work (yes, I'm working
:on Christmas Eve, and will be working the day after as well, and on
:New Years...) which asserts that those without evil deeds have no
:secrets. There's more than a little truth in there, tho I'll acccept
:questions on its absoluteness.
[Note, I'm still catching up, so likely this has already been discussed
to death - I have all of today (New Year's Day) to catch up.]
OK, I'll bite.
Who defines "evil deeds"?
Deeds contrary to the local law might be evil - they can certainly get
you in real trouble if discovered.
What about deeds contrary to the local morality? They can get you in
a different kind of trouble, but it might actually be more serious, and
will vary wildly depending on where you live.
As mentioned before, it is fear of discovery that is often more of a
problem than fear of the actual punishment. This fear is likely to be
*stronger* in the second case - the punishments meted out by today's
law are often more inconvenient than anything. Ridicule by your
neighbours, and social isolation can be much more serious things, and
fear of discovery is likely what *results* in violent crimes.
I'm often glad that I live up here in Canada, instead of down in the
U.S., where the "moral majority" is much stronger. Is that type of
phenomenom present in other countries as well?
