What does the bible say about anger, and how does common sense differ? Since forever, western civilization has been to and fro' with what to do with rage ( along with many different things). Many times, it's given the reputation of destruction and conclusive regret. Quite recently, it's been expressed through boastful a displays of power, but only in the more theatrical sense. Still, to whom does its morale value serve as an advantage, and to whom as a disadvantage? Malcolm once referenced to is as "a gift". Now for historical reasons, there's probably a gargantuan amount of people who would deem that quote irrelevant. Even then, isn't a man of such stature, or any stature at all, entitled to his opinion? Most people would follow the public-friend regime and recite the well-known ( among fellow Christians ) , " Be quick to listen and slow to anger..."passage. Also through historical events, many examples have accomplished plenty through non-violent approaches. Now, it seems the standing question is; does the approach matter? Is it the presentation of an insensitive that renders its means possible, or could it be considered the purity of intention that touches the hearts of correspondents? A simple debate between professionalism and passion. To digress, anger does have its different forms. A few of these different faces are recognized as personality traits, such as: aggressive, passive, and passive-aggressive. Aggression, being the more common and familiar form, can be seen at times as an act of irrationality or mindlessness. Some cases being impulsive, others being excessively forceful, with or without tact. And of course, everything has its pro's and con's. Where aggression generates the satisfaction of being progressive, often times the downfall can be a result of the obsessive behavior. Most people would find themselves oppressed in certain conditions, and soon become offensive, ultimately transforming into a "Big Nasty McGriddle" of angry rebels. Nobody wants Che throwing cocktails at the 3 in the morning, because they feel neglected and unimportant. Second is the passive trait. The sweet, soft-spoken sibling, doing their best to stay out of the way, yet always winding its way back in the scapegoat position. Everyone knows that the law of nature goes along the lines of, "Kill or be killed." Where there is someone willing to back down, there is his arch nemesis anticipating to pounce, like no tomorrow. But, there is a small percentage of those that believe in such methods as positive reinforcement. Seeing that most commonly, hurt people hurt people, some seek to offer an emotional haven, of sorts. Lending out a hand of peace, serenity, and understanding may play the part of not only getting the job, but also offering a sense of tranquility in the process.... NEXT! And last, but absolutely, positively not least, there's the well-spoken, well played characteristic... passive-aggressive. The least favorite of the trio, for the fact that it is known for its tedious element of surprise. What more can be said? Anytime you can make a big impression, why not make it silent, but deadly? I guess what could conclude this segment is that anger is simply a state of mind, and how one chooses to approach it will manipulate the outcome.
