good sharing, and seriously, at peak hours in LRT/KTM station where the people are many, it tends to have people cutting queue. I've seen people like that at KLCC, Kg.Baru,Ampang Park, Masjid Jamek, Wangsa Maju LRT stations around 8.30am and around 6pm.

since no one shared about religious point of view, and i do not want people to think that religions TOTALLY didn't touched about that issue, im going to share something. im going to share it from Christian Holy Bible by the way.

QUOTE
EXODUS 20:17
"You shall not covet your neighbor's house. You shall not covet your neighbor's wife, or his manservant or maidservant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor."

One of the famous 10 Commandments. First of all, what does covet means.

cov·et/ˈkəvit/
Verb: Yearn to possess or have (something)
:according to google

in this case, the "something" means the position in the queue that the people have.

Secondly, who is "your neighbour"? neighbour does not only mean the families who are living beside your house, it also means the people around you, in this context, the people in the queue.

So, to put the commandment in this situation, it would be: " You shall not yearn to possess the position of the people in queue".

QUOTE
JAMES 4:17
"Whoever knows what is right but doesn't do it is sinning." (GOD's WORD Translation)

I think this is pretty self-explanatory.

If you think it answers the question on "How religion views queue cutting" great, i'm happy to be able of help;if you don't then....just leave it.

Please to not quote this and flame, it doesn't matter what religion you are in, as long as something is good and is applicable, we should all learn from it. If you have any problems with those, feel free to PM me if you think that it might spark unwanted flaming. I'll remove this if deemed necessary by me or mods.

Ah...good example. Let me ask you then...since this is a sin, is there such things as big sin or small sin? Like killing people compared to cutting queue? Will religious people be thinking..this is only small sin..don't care.

im not sure about other religions, in Christianity there's no such thing as big sin small sin, a sin is a sin, and in the old testament(before Christ) sacrifices are needed for any kind of sin that each person did. You tell a lie to a person but no one gets hurt; you tell a lie and many people gets hurt, they do not matter, still you told a LIE. God's standard is VERY high, even thinking of bad things is considered a sin, let's say, you drove a car and someone ACCIDENTALLY cut your lane almost banging your car and you thought of scolding him,even though you did not actually scold him, you sinned. This is why many Christians say EVERYONE sinned(exept Jesus who is a man yet GOD, it's hard to explain here... smile.gif ), and many non-Christians get offended.
