What is heavier, a kilo of nail or a kilo of cotton?
They have the same weight right? One is equal to one no matter what the thing is being weighted.
What's the difference between stealing millions or billions of pesos in the society's fund and stealing your neighbor's cellphone? Nothing! Because the point is the act of stealing.
The one who got caught stealing in a drug store was sent into jail. He was asked why he did that and he said he did not have a choice because his child was dying and was needing the medicine but unfortunately they did not have money to buy it so he stole the drug to save his son's life but still he needs to face the consequence of his action no matter how good the intention was. He was with the ones who killed barbarously and all the criminals that you could ever imagine.
He was being punished according to what he had done. So here's my point, what is the difference between those criminals and the senators who both did the same mistake? Why are those senators receiving this kind of "special treatment"? They are all accused of enriching themselves through kickbacks from their ghost projects under the Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF).
Are they being accomodated much more than the other inmates at the Camp Crame? Why should they be separated from the other inmates? Should they be jailed in ordinary cells along with the others?
As what I have said, no matter how big or small it is, how good or bad the intension is, a sin will always be a sin and all sins are punishable by the law of human and law of God.
We have laws so that we can have orderliness in the society and whoever disobeys the law must received proper punishment regardless of the position you have in the society.
