Dear Fred

How do you understand the word "flexible" in the business arena?

Fred's Response

We can make a decision that if we have to violate our values we just won't do business with them. This happened once in my experience where bribery was the order of the day. We simply refused to participate and it cost us business. If by "flexible" you mean bending the Christian ethic, then we are using a euphemism for a bad practice. We must decide whether we can ethically work with those who disregard reasonable human rights and look only to production.
