The objects you feel you own are not yours.
The building structure is not yours either.
So if someone were to come into your house and take something..
It wasn't yours to begin with..
So they're really not stealing at all.
They have as much right to take it as you have to keep it.

Hm. surprised

There is no independence.The self-declared independence is merely a human illusion. You never created yourself. You never made the cloth of your clothing. Nor the material used to build your current living enviroment. Nor did you build the current living inviroment. You are, never will be, and it is physically impossible for you to be independent.

Are you implying that the being (or what you wish to call it) that created this entire place is what "owns" this place?

One could say that mother nature owns your clothes because she created the cotton fabric of which you wear. However, you could also say "that which created mother nature owns her and thus owns her cotton". This reasoning is sort of silly.

If you were to go along with it, essentially, your mother owns you, which indicates that she can do what she will with you. Certainly, she "owns" the title of being your biological mother, but not in the sense of a god, where you are subject to her every whim and fancy. You certainly can exercise actions beyond that of which she desires.

This is under the assumption that we have free will of course. If we were characters in a novel, we essentially would be "owned" by the author. Or beings God created for an ultimate purpose, then yes, He would "own" us as well. There are countless possibilities to this perspective, but in the one that you described, I'm afraid you're sorta wrong. At least until I'm proven otherwise.

No offense? :'D

So if I can hack your account and take all your item, that's ok? Right? Cause you have no ownership of them.

So if I walk in to your house and take all your stuff that's ok? Right? Cause you have no ownership of them.

You can't claim original ownership, only the creator can do that. But, as time passes, so do these things. From hand to hand via trade (includes cash) usually, sometimes as a heirloom. You can, however, claim current ownership. It's your property currently, despite past owners. Which is why posession is 9/10ths of the law. (:

If you buy it, it is yours regardless of where it originally came from.

So thieves are thieves.
