Justme, I'm just pondering, but I can't think of anywhere that scripture puts such a burden or obligation on us. As I search my memory for passages that would shed light on this, my mind goes to Paul giving believers permission to eat meat sacrificed to idols. He seemed to teach they need not burden their conscience with worry about "supporting" the practice. Feel free to eat the meat was the suggestion. Perhaps its apples to oranges, but I still can't think of any passage that would require somebody to meet up to Christian ethics before a christian may do business with them. In Christ, Beja |

Dear Pastor Beja, That is a very good point! How might we live today, for example, if we refused to purchase anything manufactured in communist China? Or electronics whose source material comes from oppressed peoples in Africa. If such things stain one's moral character, I would truly love to meet an American who has managed to avoid such things. In Him, Doc |

That is cop out, Orthodox Jews live in a world filled with bacon and cheeseburgers, multi material fabrics, a world where the biggest entertainment and social interaction night is Friday night. Know this most Jews must spend more to live as the do. A Jews Kosher products usually are more expensive than the same non kosher produce. But they believe the welfare of their soul is worth more than what they could save by joining the world. You can buy electronics not made in China you can buy most anything not made in some other country, you might have to pay more but it can be done. Perhaps if more Christians took the stand I will not compromise by beliefs more products would be made in the US, Pornography would die for lack of market and once again we would be truly one nation under God |
