Well, there is much about this nation and world at large that does indeed trouble and anger me--quite rightfully so.
Truth be told, I don't find the "It's all going to magically work out in the end" fairy tale delusion that so many religious folks tend to adopt to be particularly impressive; Or it's accompanying "Don't get angry" and forgiveness mantras. The ability to anesthetize oneself against the cruelties and injustices of this world and accept bullshit with barely a peep is not a virtue in my book. Not in the least.
