Do we teach our kids that they should have a free education. Even though they went to college thinking they'd have to pay; would we support the idea that we can just ignore that debt. And is it okay if our country continues to go into debt ...will our debtors simply forgive us, and erase our debt? Can we refuse to take a job, because some of the people who work there aren't vegetarians ...or maybe they all drink Sprite, while you like Coke. How much can we step aside from? What should we use as our criteria, and what should we ignore?

If an entire group involves themselves in certain activity, they may feel comfort in numbers ...and if no one says anything, that comfort level may increase to a very comfortable routine.  But if one person stands, and says it is not right ...often they are met with hostility.  

They may try to scream the guilt away, but just one person standing for what is right ...is often the beginning of others standing.  And often it is found that those who think they are in the majority ...are not.  

In our country, we are at least somewhat accustom to majority rule.  But God is not concerned with numbers. What is right, is right ...and how else can right be defined, if not defined by God?
