I discuss the Odin Stone, the movie, A Bronx Tale, and keeping your word.
People lie today because the consequences are really not severe. We live in our modern culture where breaking our word really doesn’t have the serious political, social or personal consequences as they once did. In fact, some of our politicians, military and law enforcement members lie on a daily basis without serious repercussions.
In ancient Biblical times having honor was a serious matter. Though we live in modern times should keeping our word be different? In the past a man's reputation was the most important thing he owned.
