Crime, Virtue and Vice


"Crimes" are acts forbidden by the law of the government concerned, and "virtue" and "vice" are the outcome of traditional customs. The sentiments of the lawmakers are very much influenced by the current concepts of virtue and vice of the locality or of the people concerned. The sense of crime, therefore, runs parallel to the cocnepts of virtue and vice which vary from country to country. Those working toward world fraternity should try to lessen the difference between social, traditional, moral and human laws. All those actions which help in the spiritual, mental and physical growth of humanity should come under the category of virtuous deeds, and those actions which impede the spiritual, mental and physical development of humanity must be considered vice. This concept of virtue and vice applies for humanity in general."
