Talk:Theft

From Wikipedia

A person who has been convicted of theft may be called a thief. However, the practice of engaging in theft is commonly called stealing. Wouldn't this "linguistic discontinuity" suggest that the concept of property rights came fairly recently to western culture? j/w - knoodelhed 08:48, 19 Dec 2003 (UTC)
