It takes quite a bit of thinking and reasonable feelings to have faith in something, wouldn't you say? I feel like I'm one of those people who like to feel happy about doing small things that are charitable- in fact they're like so many of them that I don't even realize I did them and then later throughout random days I recall it and feel good for having done them. Having faith in being generous is pretty nice, wouldn't you say? I also believe that God really created us for a purpose and that Jesus really wishes everybody to not condemn themselves over any act that they feel is unpardonable. An important role that Jesus plays is that he demonstrated the power of love by showing kindness to suspicious people he knew were about to betray him to jealous enemies. Pride really seems to get in the way to making a commitment to know Jesus and yes, occasionally people who act pretty dumb and associate with things out of character.
For some reason, how I get to prideful people is ask them if they think they're perfect and most often than not, that question seems to get them to stumble because it did to me and lots of other people who don't even think like they are all that. The loneliness factor of people shunning you for being so stuck up also gets to some people. For the most part, it seems to be sort of lying to yourself if you think you're a hot shot because there are others who you may want to prevent from knowing more than you because you want to like hold your position over them as long as you could be satisfied. So to answer the questions that originates from the title of this post, take the time to be blunt about yourself or in other words, straight-forward and see where that leads you. If you want to become evil, then shame on you and hopefully you won't bomb a building of Oklahoma City. I think people who are bent on doing evil stuff are pretty much idiots even if they get around to hurting other people because if you take away all the fear, then it's really messy with millions of good people still being happy elsewhere.
