Can it be done?
"My organisation is more moral than yours"... is that a good measure or just opinion? Surely to claim a measure of morality this way the claimant would have to measure morality by opinion of ALL organisations.
"We boot people out of our organisation who do not hold to our moral standards"... isn't this an acceptance that said organisation is actually less moral, and only maintaining a claimed moral superiority through eviction of weaker individuals?
And besides, isn't this claim of moral superiority a work of pride, which it has been said - comes before a fall?
Seek first the Kingdom of God and his righteousness (not mans morality).
Thoughts...?
