You see, there is this boy called Tom. Now his family is not all that rich financially. He is astudent in a college. He has a pair of shoes but they are torn and have seen better days. He doesn't have enough money to buy new ones. So he asks his dad for some money to buy new ones, and the dad says he is broke. Ofcourse this was no surprise to Tom. Left with no choice, Tom decides to skip the first few weeks of college inorder to save the transport money without his father's knowledge. He couldn't help that he was deciving his dad given that it is his dad who pays the fees. It was either that or continue to go to school with slippers. Now Tom is a christian and wonders whether this is in keeping to living the perfect way of the lord. On the other hand he consoles himself that what he did was related to going to school, so it wasn't really a lie.Was his actions wrong, justified.....? Please reply!

Guest yod Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 He can go to college and pay for shoes if he gets off his duff. but the question seems purposely vague. What are you trying to bait us for? Is he justified in skipping college? Is he justified in avoiding a job? Is he justified in "deceiving" his father? Seems more like a matter of disclosure since it's possibly only a temporary situation. what kind of justification are you talking about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
