Region locking, Piracy, and Emulation

[RomanNoodles]

So, I have a game I really want to play for my PS2 Tales Of Destiny. Problem is, the PS2 version never got a English realese so I had to buy the Japanesse version. This would be fine, eccept that the PS2 in America at least is region locked. So if I want to play this game I have to buy a Japanesse PS2. Another option is to hack the PS2. But, this is illegal, costs money, etc. The last option I can think of is to use an emulater that I used in the past before becomeing a more serious Christian, PCSX2. It loads the disc that's on the computer and  plays it like a ps2 normally would. Now here's my question:would you guys consider the emulation method religiously immoral? If so why?
