        No. No you wouldn’t, that’s a lie, you just now said you disagreed with that concept entirely.

        You literally just said the opposite of that. The exact opposite of that. You just now said that stealing is always wrong and should always be stopped.

          It should always be stopped. There’s a difference between what is objectively moral and what is subjectively moral.

          Theft is objectively immoral.

          Stealing to feed your children is subjectively moral and objectively immoral.

          Both can be true at the same time.

          The reason why theft is objectively moral is because you would never want anyone to violate your will and thus, you should never want to violate the will of another.
