Anger does not equal bad. Why are people SO damn afraid of anger, especially when it's righteous anger like this. You have every reason to be angry and so do I and so does every other person on this planet. Hmmmm....i'm thinking even Chavez should be a little bit pissed. (not that I condone his behavior). My whole point is that Christians are sometimes so afraid of anger and view it as a bad thing rather than a powerful emotion that can be used for good. <BR/>just as righteously angry, <BR/>amyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10217302.post-1125015573906814002005-08-25T19:19:00.000-05:002005-08-25T19:19:00.000-05:00Yes, Chris, I understood you to be kidding.

If not, let me clarify. Robertson ticks me off, too.

We "moderates" must do something to let the world know that these "far right" Christians do not speak for all of us. I know there are more moderates out there, we just are not as good at getting our voices heard. I think (and hope) that is changing!!!!<BR/><BR/>I was a little disconcerting to see you so angry -- but I can understand why.
