Matt;

I guess he could always refuse to serve fat people more Big Macs...

He could say, "Are you sure you want the regular coke maam...your hips are pretty thunderous already..."




Yes, I agree. Unless one has to work somewhere or starve, one could find a better job that doesn't kill people.

But where?

If they work at a gas station they end up selling condoms and prngphy to unmarried folks and delinguents, if they work at any restaurant they end up serving already obese folks. If they work at Walmart they could have to stock morning after pills, if they join the military they might or might not agree with every war (and I do believe it to be sin if they engage in a war they don't beleive in). If they work in psychology or as a counselor or as a nurse or police man, there are always issues that rub.


When working in the secular world it is very hard to be in the world and not of the world and to make a living without supporting something that is sin, or leads to sin, or does no good at all for society besides giving you a paycheck. Even to work for a secular business or working to enrich a secular boss seems frustrating... but I guess God wills to place people in all sorts of areas so that a light can be in all sorts of places. Some places would be, however, more trying, and these places I guess need more prayers. I guess the alternative would be to take a vow of poverty and find a desert - but this influences society even less.
