Ancient Wisdom: If it doesn't hurt anyone, does it matter?

It’s something we hear with surprising regularity… even from ourselves. We defend ourselves against our sense of being judged (by God, by other people, or even by ourselves), with a shrug of the shoulders, and by reciting the old adage: ‘It didn’t hurt anyone’. Solomon begst o differ. We are deeply interconnected creatures… and our sin always hurts others.
