You make it sound like you have never done anything wrong in your life.
Hey Search4Tomorrow,
I don't know how what I wrote can add up to that conclusion, but your response is subjective and you are clearly reacting from your heart.
I think there is a bit of a muddle here about which of David's actions are
sinning and which are
criminal. I'm not particularly worried in this instance about his sins, as God will take care of his, mine and yours. The lie about who was calling the Quakers was a sin, that's for sure.
I don't think anyone deserves to be sinned against. Blaming the victim is a not right thinking. Two wrongs don't make a right.
My post was to clarify the incorrect idea that to listen in on a phone conversation without telling the other party legal. It might not be a sin, (the Bible doesn't seem to give any instruction on telephone conversations) but it's an offence in Australia under the law I refered to in an earlier post. It's illegal. And according to David's posting on his site, Private Eyes has been looking for criminal/illegal offences. My purpose was to point out that David himself has stated that he and others "listened in" on the call. He has declared that he has committed a crimanal offence in Australia. He has broken the law of the land.
I can see where you are coming from too. I get the idea from the things I read that David McKay is not that concerned about breaking the law, given the history of his stunts with burning money etc. He seems to think that it's ok if it's to promote the Jesus Christians way of life. So your concern with the
sin in his offence is important for those who are not worried about the law of the land, but worried about the law of God. Well done in pointing that out!
Either way, I'm sure that promoting such things (sinful or illegal) will not sit well with the Quakers and his membership, and will add to their "concerns".
