Product recommendation/selling...can it be immoral?

[hasikelee]

I work for a company that sells construction materials. Often times, I meet people with the craziest ideas.

For example, one client wanted to purchase kerosene heaters to use in his privately owned daycare for when the power went out.

Others want to use certain pipes for gas or sewage that would burst or cause fires.

I always try to discourage these types of incidents and offer alternative solutions, but contractors can be very stubborn.

I find myself wondering if I have any moral obligation to tell someone…for example, the contractor’s customer (whose house will go up in flames) or even call the police.

The ideas that these customers have are probably not legal according to building code laws. Aren’t the contractors required to have a building permit from the city in which they are going to do the work? Informing the city department that takes care of building permits/inspection might be a good idea, or perhaps, you could require to see a building permit prior to selling the materials.

I noted your statement about birth control and health and I did not like it. These chemicals go into your body and will endanger your health. Preventing implantation is an abortificant! There is a safe method of birth control which is PROVEN more effective and reliable both for fertility and infertility which will not harm your body. It promotes respect for your spouse and deepens the relationship and I highly recommend it. It is the Billings Method of Natural Family Planning and if used sensibly IS APPROVED by the Church.
Bless you.
