Sorry i'm going to go a little off topic here but this is something i would like to hear more opinions about.


The question is simple.

Does the end justify the means?

Example. Lets say you are a person with five children and you really need a job. You found one. However, there is another person more qualify for the job than you. Well, afraid you are not going to get the job you decide to lie in resume. The problem is the lies are going to built up from there. Now lets say you got the job because you lied. Was it alright to lie? The other person was more qualify than you. But you also have five children to fead. Do you think that a person should do whatever it takes to get something even if it means to hurt other people along the way? I mean it is for a good cause. You need to give food to your children.

Remember a mans character is his faith. Your character and values is what makes you good person. If you don't have good character and values you are probably going to end up bad. Yes lied for a good cause, but is it the right thing to do? What happened to your character and values?

It is all related to the old saying "What goes around comes around " Yeah you might have gotten the job but sooner or later you are going to pay the consequences.



Now there is no right or wrong answer to this question. It is just a matter of opinion. Now i want to hear yours.
