How often do you steal from your local grocery stores?

Since the popularity of grocery self checkouts, I usually "forget" to scan at least one item per trip. It adds up to a decent cost savings, up to $20 each time.

It especially works at the big box stores where the people who are supposed to check your receipts don't actually check SHIT except for obviously high ticket items. If I ever got caught I'd just profusely apologize and pay for it. No one would ever question it.

I don't steal. I cannot stand liars, cheats, or thieves. The thought of not returning a borrowed pen even disgusts me. When people think their theft is somehow justified because it's "from a company" they not only cheat other customers, the company, but also themselves.

You will be judged someday, anon, for all the things you did and did not do. For your thoughts and for your words. I really do hope you will have a moment on introspection and come to see how your petty theft is wrong.

The only faggot is the juvenile that thinks they're getting one over on "the man" and considers their petty theft righteous in some twisted way. St. Augustine wrote something very profound in The Confessions about how he stole a pear as a teenager. Maybe go read that. In fact go read the whole damn book, there's a nice part about how not even deceivers like to be deceived. Maybe you'll learn something about your nature.

>no one thinks they're "getting one over" on the man.
Yes you do. These sorts of feelings on theft are nearly universally accompanied with "it's a big company, it doesn't really hurt anyone." What a shallow and short sighted view. What makes it okay to steal from a big company but not a small one? What would make it okay to steal from a small company but not a stranger? Why stop at strangers and not your neighbors?

Theft is wrong and shows a profound attachment to the material. St. Augustine was a very wise man and your snide remarks only show how little you know about yourself.

Never because I'm not a black or a thief. I make more than enough money to be able to buy what I want. The closest thing that ever happened was that I bought a pack of eggs on discount, opened the box to see their condition, noticed two were missing and grabbed two from another box to make up the difference. When I explained to my ex why two were white and the rest brown she explained that the whole reason why it was discount was because the other two broke and I actually felt bad about it.

Now I wouldn't snitch on someone if I caught them stealing food and I would definitely look the other way if they were stealing baby food/formula etc, but if I see you stuff your purse with a steak, soda or other nonessential items damn right I'm going to stare at you and judge you for doing so.

First off
The 7th commandment isn't about stealing in the strictest sense, it's about taking something that OBJECTIVELLY belongs to someone else.
Ie that box of cereal belongs ONLY to the peopl involved in creating the cereal and the box, not the managers, owners, ceo's etc.
Stealing from a store doesn't break the 7th commandment unless it's a mom and pop store where they made literally everything they sell.

Secondly
Eating meat is not a sin, but it's morally incorrect.

I bring my own reusable bags and put the expensive stuff on the bottom of the cart. Generally it's meat, nice cheese and luxury items that I can't afford. Average trip to the store I spend about ~$35, but the actual cost of goods usually exceeds $80. The one time I was "caught", I just apologized, said it was an accident and paid for it.

When I was really brazen, generally drunk, I'd literally just walk out with my bags full of whatever I want.

Bullshit.
The original bible text has been lost forever and was never recorded.

The oldest text of the bible we have is a translation of a translation of a translation.
The oldest text of the bible we have is written in Greek, yet during the time of Jesus, he and his followers would have spoken Aramaic and/or Hebrew, especially for old testament too.
That means what we have now for all we know could just be a fake perpetuated by false prophets or whatever.
