The Creation of Lawless People

Every time a law takes effect a behavior or action becomes forbidden and penalized.

We have forgotten that laws are not the solution to bad behaviors or bad actors.
Good education and direct responsibility are components of a respectful and evolving society, that intents to be better tomorrow that it is today.
Among the many human deficiencies is the deviation of greed one of the most dangerous character flaw.
It does seem greed it is one deficiency in character that it has become impossible to teach, or we have become callous about the need to be corrected.

It is interesting that most religions have some form of fix for character flaws.
One fix for this fault in most religions is a form of the following core statement:
"don't do unto others what you don't want do to you"

The amazing part about religions forming such thought, as a core thought, is the important part that takes place as an allegiance to the group.
If the religious groups will concentrate in following that simple idea and act upon it, greed will be eliminated.
Thus, due to the society present situation it will be fair to say that religions have fail most people. The consequences of covering-up and clouding arguments around the core, justifying what is convenient to justify, does not comply with such core believe. It is understood in all religions that it is the spirit of the letter what matters not the letter itself.
Today, it has become the most common approach to justify why is difficult to accomplish religious core believes.
The fact is that it is not easy to be a good faithful believer; the disturbing part is that no effort is been put in getting near the thought or the education that takes to be a believer of core believes.
More effort is put in justifying why "Thou should not kill" is better to be debated with its present caveats than its initial intent of respect for all life.

When money enters the process it seems that believers lose sight and money surpass all core believes, bulk majority set aside the core ideas of their believe in favor of greed for money. Money and its justifications has corrupted their religious believe system.
At present time, we are incapable of handling money without corrupting their own believe thought process.
Thus let's the conversation be not about convenient caveats but about the spirit of the letter.
