As long as it hurts no one else, what is so wrong with someone?

Question

else living life as they see fit, even if they don't agree with your views?

Answer 1

Sounds good to me. Sounds like my standard answer to the "explain your morals, heathen" questions

Answer 2

Agree if you can guarantee that no one else is hurt. I happen to believe that every choice we make, everything we do, every action we take becomes part of the past (and of course the present) and in some way no matter how small affects something in the future.

Some even go so far as to say that everything we do affects everyone on the planet in some way even if they do not know it.

Does furious group all people who claim to be Christian together, and all Gays Together. That sounds a bit bias to me. Being Gay may be something they have in common with another Gay person but is probably not all they are. Same for people who claim to be Christian. I feel many that claim to be Christian are only surface Christians...Furious needs a larger perspective...at least based on this answer.

Answer 3

My first questionj would be, "how do you know you harm no one?" We are often not aware of how our lives impact other people, and usually when we do, it is too late. Sexual actions are the best example of this.

What would be so bad about having sex with your neighbor's wife? She wants it, you want it, you are consenting adults, what's the harm?

But what about how you will feel the next day when you have to talk to the neighbor? Of how that neighbor will feel when they find out (and they almost always do)? How about the harm that this might cause to the children when they find the relationship between their parents suddenly turn cold?

The only way the "if it harms none do as you please" position is that unless you know everything, including the future, you do not know for sure that your actions will not harm yourself, much less others.

Answer 4

It's the bible that sets the standard for how we are to be not any person. It is clear that all are needing salvation from a sinful condition (Romans 3:23) and God offers it to all but you have a choice (John 3:16). Then for Christians; God very clearly tells us how we should live. The only issue is what do you live by. Do you live by what people around you say or by what you think is right or what is popular today or do you live by what the bible says. Its of course your choice but I choose to live by the bible's requirement because our creator knows best.

Answer 5

You see that's just it! It's not hurting anyone the problem is that people seem to think that they have the right to mind other people's business and they don't. When people should get involved, like when a child is being abused or a woman is getting the crap slapped out of her they all seem to instantly become blind and deaf.

Answer 6

No one ever promised life would be fair. As long as people are around you will always have a group out there trying to instill there beliefs on the world thinking that their way is aways the best way. Only when they physically try to force their beliefs on you are you justified in killing them.

Answer 7

Of course, there is nothing wrong with that. "Live and let live" is a good philosophy. The problem is that many people can't "let live" and see it as their duty determine how others should live. I try not to be that way.

Answer 8

Not a gosh darned thing, by golly jee! As far as I am concerned everyone else is wrong and i am of course the only person in gods dark valley that knows anything, so there you have it. believe what you like I won't try to convince you otherwise because i am right and I know it.

Answer 9

It depends on your reasoning.....SOMEONE has to be the ultimate judge of right and wrong...I say that's God's right as
Creator. Of course I'm looking at this from a Christian perspective, I don't know which perspective you have?

Answer 10

Some things, even though they do us no harm may be setting a poor example for those too young to know what is right, and what is wrong.
