Chris explained it much better than I did. His just wasn’t up yet when I posted my theological contemplations. If I wore a hat, it would be off in respect to him.

So he’s not a user of crack cocaine, he is simply just a delivery service?

REGARDING:
” What happened? where did we go wrong as parents? as a society? how can we repair these broken minds and hearts? How, at this late hour, do we impress upon these kids that it is not acceptable to take something that someone else worked for?”

WE did not go wrong as parents. Some parents produced children who became adults who do or did things we do not like. (So did Adam, Abraham, Noah, Jacob/Israel, David, Samuel, …) Even then, it is not uncommon for the parents to be satisfied.

Our society is flawed because it is composed of flawed persons, but not more so than any previous one.

If we could fix flaws, others could create more. Add that to the fact that we would be changing how others were allowed to think and consider the wrongness of the wish.

Na’Keetric can repent of evil if he wishes — or not. He is free to choose every day, just like the rest of us. His choices are not our failures or victories.

REGARDING:
““He will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’”

Always interesting how many take that to mean anyone by looking alone at scriptures like:

Matthew 25:45
“Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.”

and ignore the fact that it builds on scriptures like:

Matthew 25:40
“And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these MY BRETHREN, ye have done it unto me.”

And they thereby derive interpretations involving the good Lord demanding businesses give away their wares and help addicts get more drugs, more liquor, more weapons.

These are — to me at lest — obviously false.
False teachings are lies.
Satan is the father of lies.

John 8:44
“Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.”

I may be misapplying it as I believe others do, but I doubt it.
