This is not a Christian issue, but a human race issue. It is seen often in religion when deciding which rules to follow and which to explain away, but the reality is it happens to everyone in every day life. Reasoning is one of mans greatest traits, but also one of our biggest downfalls. The idea of moral relativity is alive and well with pretty much everyone as every day people who consider themselves law abiding citizens speed, or text and drive, or maybe don't claim everything on a tax form they should, or lie about their kids age at a restaurant. Most will explain away these offenses as petty, but the reality is they are laws that are being broken. I am by no means a religious person, but I am not sure it makes someone with "Conservative Christian Values" any worse than you or me, as we should all strive to follow all laws.
