Wanderings

Thoughtful Sign

At least it got me thinking. Posted outside a local church was this “There is no right way to do a wrong.” It got my little logic cells computing. Do they also mean that there is no wrong way to do a right? After all, that would be the second side of the coin so to speak. In coin terms, that would be the “obverse side”. My mind is already wandering…

Then my mind got to thinking – actually asking myself if that was really true.

At some point, I would have probably said “it depends”. I guess if someone wanted to steal, and they talked to someone who steals for a living (now that’s a thought to ponder), the professional thief would probably give them pointers on the “right way” to steal. It would still be doing a wrong, but according to the expert, you would be doing it the right way.

Applying that kind of thinking to the “wrong way to do a right” picture, could really mess with one’s mind. I’m not so sure, but you see where the logic and illogic can take you when you get started down the wrong path (There was that word again!)

Oh well, perhaps it got your brain going and you are asking yourself “what in the world is he talking about?” My only point here is that a wrong done is still a “wrong” even if we don’t think it is/was. Makes you want to go find and argue definitions for “right” and “wrong”. Well, don’t call me…
