Stealing is unethical. Not just MY personal morals or ethics. It is even illegal (meaning...against the law).
So, really, it all comes down, as you say, to your personal definition of the word "stealing", which I guess also comes down to your personal ethics or morals.
If your morals dictate to you that it is ok to keep something that is not yours (sent to you by mistake) then so be it. I'm NOT trying to force my ethics on anyone and I'm not trying to change you. I just personally find it rather disgusting...the act as well as the attempt at justification. I guess I just grew up in a different age when different principles were more common.
I'm not sure how we got off on all these personal attacks. I originally was just giving my opinion on how the "dilemma" should be handled. Sorry if you got so riled by it.
