In the Book of Proverbs6:16-19, King Solomon states that there are "six things the Lord hateth, and seven that are an abomination unto Him":
1. A proud look
2. A lying tongue
3. Hands that shed innocent blood
4. A heart that devises wicked plots
5. Feet that are swift to run into mischief
6. A deceitful witness that uttereth lies
7. Him that soweth discord among brethren
Proverbs 6 and its contents describes what civilization (and ultimately government) is all about: PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY. One chapter in Proverbs sums up my idea of personal responsibility and the wisest man who ever lived (Solomon) agrees. Read it and see if you agree, then meditate on these principles.
