The Trouble with Thieves

The author recounts overhearing leftist activists complain about theft from their newspaper racks, despite their paper promoting lawlessness and rejecting biblical morality. He compares their hypocrisy to others who once celebrated theft but now condemn it when victimized. The same pattern, he argues, is seen in Communist societies and in modern schools and churches that reject God's law, only to suffer the consequences of moral collapse. The solution, he concludes, is national repentance and a return to God’s standards—because thieves often reflect the very corruption of the culture that raised them.
