    If I were a child of God, I would take the money as a ‘blessing and sign from God that my deeds on earth should be rewarded.’ Thus is the gospel of supply-side Jesus.

    You always return the wallet. This is not a Christian thing, this is just a human thing. But here’s the pros and cons.

    Number one scenario: it belongs to an insanely rich person. If you keep this wallet they will barely miss that money because they have plenty, however the police will work very hard to find you and then they will beat the ever living shit out of you and you will be sent to jail for stealing from an oligarch.

    Scenario two: it belongs to somebody for whom this is their entire life savings and without it they will become destitute. You will face no repercussions for keeping the wallet and the money because they have no power. But you will have completely destroyed someone else’s life which makes you a vile disgusting POS.

    Scenario three: it belongs to a drug dealer. And eventually that drug dealer will find you and murder your entire family because you stole from some cartel somewhere. Because the war on drugs has made drug cartels insanely powerful and contemptuous of the rule of law.

    I don’t believe in any god at all and I would still pick it up and try to return it. We don’t need a supernatural being telling us what’s right and wrong. It’s innate inside all of us as social beings.

    Since God doesn’t exist the real question is “As a child of your parents, what’s your next move?” And answer to that question tells a lot about the person.

      What if one’s parents are POSes and one had to mature independently from their influence, or simpler, if one has no parents?

    I have only found a wallet once in my life. I was able to return it. I couldn’t imagine losing that much cash. I would absolutely return it.

    1. Put the wallet in a safe place.

    2. Locate the owner.

    3. Kill them.

    4. Pay off credit cards.

      Awfully kind of you to pay off their credit cards so they can rest in peace without the shackles of debt.
