Soemtimes Christians who oppose what I say will claim that my motivation for saying X is because I am angry. They say this in attempt to dismiss validity from my argument(s). First of all, I may or may not be angry, but I do not see how that should make a difference. A good point is a good point no matter how I feel inside. Second, why is anger assumed to be such a bad thing? Being angry can lead to behavior that is wrong or unacceptable, but that does not necessarily mean that the anger itself is bad. Does not the god of the Christians allow himself to become angry if he finds it necessary? If God can do it and still be without sin, how can it be sinful for anyone else? If it is not sinful, how can it be wrong to the Christian?
Zach de la Rocha says that "anger is a gift." I would say that anger could be just as much of a curse as it can be a gift. It is what you make of it that counts.
