"Good"

I don't know that anger can be wholly classified as evil. There is such a thing as righteous anger. I get angry thinking about abortion. I don't think my anger is evil.

 

Nor wrath for that matter. Bible talks about God's wrath. It's all how it's used and to what purpose.

 

thelt listed anger and wrath as evil. i'm skeptical of that as well as you guys...

 

Righteous wrath serves well to justify death and mayhem inflicted by deities, governments and individuals alike.

What if 9/11 was the beginnings of God's wrath and we simply don't understand it? What if our bombing of Iraq is? One person's righteous wrath is another person's murder.

Right now we're working through the reading list the adoption agency gave us. We have a seminar to go to on April 30th up in Modesto. After that, it's counseling, evaluations, more reading, and I presume a lot of paperwork. Then we wait.

Thanks for asking.

 

Your point is well taken, and not out of the realm of possibility, IMO. The Old Testament cites several cases of God using Israel to punish other countries, and vice versa by means of war.

 

Bullshit. I've done it once and it was to mock Sly. He instigated the silly fashion.
