I already dealt with this in my last post.
Do you think that rage can happen without a cause or reason? You think that rage happens for no reason whatsoever?
According to Wikipedia anger is when we DO have a reason to be angry, when we are offended, etc. So when we are angry, we are to an extent outraged (hence the 'offended', the umbrage). And since rage is extreme anger, rage is therefore intense outrage.
We don't get angry for no reason. We don't hate things for no reason either. Just as we don't get excited for no reason and don't love things for no reason.

Wikipedia Wrote:Anger is an emotion related to one's perception of having been offended or wronged and a tendency to undo that wrongdoing by retaliation.
