Anger, the distortion of reality.

Those on the left are angrier than those on the right. This anger comes from the remnants of the logic with which all of us were born. Just as we were born with Original Sin, we were also born with a similarly innate respect for truth.

When we choose lies over truth, that pole of the soul that is drawn to God, often futilely, says to the angry pole, “If you keep lying and hating, I’m the one who has to go to hell with you. Can’t you just start telling the truth and loving people?”

“I was angry yesterday, I am angrier today, and I’m going to be even angrier tomorrow. If you don’t like it, you can lump it.”

That “good pole” of the soul is weakened, rage rules, and the soul develops a charge that will cause it to be numbered among the damned.

The only way that any soul’s rage can be dissipated is by receiving love. Love can actually shift the polarization so that the otherwise lost soul begins loving the good and the true.

One of the hardest things we can do is to love an evil person, let alone “do good to them who hurt you.” But, that’s our job.
