Anger can be a sin.

[Hitch]

Something happened today, that caused me to reflect on this. I think anger can be a sin, even if it's directed appropriately. I think Jesus wants us to be the "bigger man" so to speak.

We will all face judgement. A lot of what we discuss, really isn't our battles to fight. Be the best person, God willing, you can be, and let some of these battles go.

Ephesians is a good letter on wrath & anger. These are real, normal emotions.

“In your anger do not sin”: Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry, and do not give the devil a foothold. (Eph 4:25)

"Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice" (Eph 4:31)

"And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord." (Eph. 6:4)

I believe "elemenope" is the longest letter of the english language.

Motivation is the determining factor. Even "love" can be a sin.

I struggle with the failing of Peter all the time: wanting to forcefully correct things I cannot...or should not.

Am I misreading this, but does that mean "OP is a bundle of sticks" (faggot)?

Bingo. OP is apparently attempting to sell us "love thy enemy" masochism and negate our natural instinctive fight or flight reaction to harm. Anger is a natural instantaneous survival response via Adrenalin.

Without knowing the actual details of Hitch's encounter that led him to believe his anger may have been sin, I can't comment too much further. It would also be important to know if the target of his anger was a brother.

As you know, controlling one's anger is not unique to the teachings of Christ. Buddha, likewise, in particular.

Is anger always a sin? Absolutely not.

Failure to act in the face of wrong is sin.

Anger for selfish reasons or without a just reason is the converse.

Propaganda alert!
The illustration is incorrect and is the result of Jewish editing of the bible. It was not the Romans, it was the Jews that killed Jesus.

[palani]

Anger is an emotion. All emotions are chemical receptor cells getting turned on or turned off by chemical signals sent from the brain. I doubt if a chemical can be classed a sin.

Correction, that would be "hearing things."

This is simply not true. There's absolutely no anger in a fight or flight survival response. None. Anger in those situations comes afterwards, it's natural to be angry at the person trying to take your life, even if you won and they are dead. During the situation, there's no actual emotion. That's the beauty of adrenaline, it takes emotion out of the equation.

I'm talking about anger in non-survival situations, that can be a sin. I should have been more clear. When the actions of another don't threaten you, but offend you, and you stew on it and let that anger rise up. That, I think can be a sin.

[palani]

I put that down first but decided imagination would be more inclusive.

I suppose I could have mentioned 'delusional' but that word might have elicited an emotion.

So, you are a materialist as well?

Human emotions are just "chemical responses" and nothing more?

Oh. Like when you got angry in GSUS threads and literally threatened to kick my ass.

Insults are indeed actual injuries and demand/deserve an angry response. Why do you think insults are considered "fighting words"?

Your mistake in the past was forgetting where you were...on the internet...to the point that your Adrenalin kicked in as if in person in the real world.

Back on topic...this "anger is a sin" nonsense is kinda faggy bro:

Angry? LOL

No, I have pity for you. Life is rough, and it's even tougher when you are stupid.

Your inability to recognize the alternative meanings of the term "speaks" marks you as lacking upstairs. Or, wait, are you just a liar?

In the Summa Theologiae, Medieval theologian Thomas Aquinas said Anger is "the name of a passion. A passion of the sensitive appetite is good in so far as it is regulated by reason, whereas it is evil if it set the order of reason aside." (2, 158, ad 2)

Pity is just another emotion. Another chemical your body is addicted to.

Take up smoking. At least with that you know you have an addiction.

Hahahahahaha............
Most of the time I completely ignore the stupid (you). Until you respond to a topic I'm familiar with in your usual conspiracy bullshit.....I correct you.
My behavior is based on your response.....as in if you're going to respond like an idiot fool:

1. I will call you an idiot fool.
2. Show why I made a such a statement.

And 100% of the time after a few responses from me you react in your usual way....by never answering a damn question...you play stupid so I treat you for what you are....stupid!

You brought up a month old thread I had never read. Are you searching your handle to defend every insult you have missed?

I treat you
Treat? Like "trick or treat"?

I believe I will turn down the treat. Let's see the trick.

After all these years....you still believe palani has anything to say that has any resemblance of being truthful?

At best you can see little pieces and parts of "truth" in his yappings....but thats his MO. He'd rather believe lies mixed in with some truth because that is what catches his attention...hes a lover of falsehoods and mother of them.
Its written as a warning to NOT follow such fools in the Bible.

All that says is in an eloquent way is that you have your head buried in the sand of your reality....doesnt say the correct reality but nonetheless a reality of some sort.
