When people sin, it is offensive. When people break the rules, it is offensive to human nature… It is natural to be offended when someone breaks the rules. We put people in prison and call them offenders. Our society is filled with sinners practicing sin, and naturally, our society is caught in a relationship with the rules.

I was thinking about the subject of rules thirty minutes ago. I think that rules that come from a trusting spirit are encouraging and effusive. However rules that come from a critical spirit are nasty.
