Words and Limitations

[Royal]

Anger is less an emotion than a principle. It is a foreshadowing of the law of evil. Maybe this entire discussion belongs in the Good and Evil thread.

Anger can lead to good or bad or nothing. Many righteous improvements in personal lives and around the world have come from anger.

We label these emotions as good or bad but that's bs. There are plenty of smiling faces out there allowing evil to happen right in front of their faces as they don't want to get angry or lose their smile. Their "happiness" does not make them good.... or bad for either.

It's all about channeling.

Best done in the gym or a sport that requires mind and body exercise.

Or better yet, gardening and making the world beautiful.

And some prefer to crap all over the internet.

You can crap all over the internet with a smile or you can allow your anger to drive you to create something beautiful.

You're judging an emotion instead of the actions the emotion(s) drive you or others to.

Do you know how many revolutions, positive ones, would be lost if anger disappeared? How many works of art? How much literature?

Do you know how many "joyful" people are really just Lotus Eaters and not truly joyful. But, they sure know how to smile and judge.

They are not starting a revolution because they

HATE their government.

They are starting a revolution because they

LOVE their families and countrymen.


I think you have things mixed up.

I said anger not hate. But, hate and anger are not EVIL emotions. How they are used can be evil. I think they can be used for the good, for the positive and for wonderful creative purposes in painting, sculpture, writing, comedy, film, politics, etc.

Many an angry venting session has turned into something funny, thoughtful or/and beautiful.

You guys want to dissect things and not keep the whole. If these emotions were unnecessary they would not be in existence.

and, in your example, anger is love. Anger is part of that love those people feel for their friends and family and their need to protect them from the "bad" guys.
