I've tried to sort out for myself the distinction between righteous anger (i.e. anger at injustice and wrongs, what I think of as "Jesus with the moneychangers in the temple") and <I>self</I>-righteous anger (which tends to devolve into the hatred and demonization that Joel talks about). I think it helps that I love so many people with different views than mine (although not anyone who is seriously and overtly anti-LGBT, in the sense that they think gay sex should be criminal and gay people sent to reeducation camps -- I don't think I could handle that, and serious props to Epilonius for being able to, especially when he's in the group being targeted).PGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09381347581328622706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9864334.post-55824618893767732702009-04-15T16:57:00.000-04:002009-04-15T16:57:00.000-04:00Winnie must have been referring to my good U*U fri...Winnie must have been referring to my good U*U friend <A HREF="http://emersonavenger.blogspot.com/2009/03/uu-folks-if-youre-going-to-insult-robin.html" REL="nofollow">Joel Monka</A>. . .Robin Edgarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06208142626285495635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9864334.post-68709469048236287342009-04-15T14:20:00.000-04:002009-04-15T14:20:00.000-04:00Lol, Strange Attractor, one of my favorite Churchi...Lol, Strange Attractor, one of my favorite Churchill quotes is "The kinds of friends who make you long for the company of your enemies."Joel Monkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10631333436948102576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9864334.post-23443409836499506452009-04-15T11:32:00.000-04:002009-04-15T11:32:00.000-04:00One of my first steps away from conservatism was t...One of my first steps away from conservatism was that I no longer wanted to be associated with people who were.Strange Attractorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16164412906076335124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9864334.post-71434955645074639062009-04-15T08:22:00.000-04:002009-04-15T08:22:00.000-04:00I'll give them that one.
