You mention 'self-righteous people' and their readiness to condemn others. The common word to describe that is 'hypocrisy.' <br /><br />Perhaps, can I suggest a second danger? It is the danger of dwelling in such anger against these 'self-righteous people,' that we throw the proverbial baby out together with the bathwater. Just because we do not agree with their self-righteous behavior does not mean they are wrong about the matter of interest. <br /><br />Thanks for commenting.Conrade Yap, (Dr)https://www.blogger.com/profile/12256834680709396244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14547775.post-12562619077776172412012-01-19T21:30:36.599-08:002012-01-19T21:30:36.599-08:00As long as it is not illegal according to the coun...As long as it is not illegal according to the country's legal system, all other behaviors are considered okay, all right, acceptable, everyone else is doing it, etc. However, there are also some self-righteous people who will not hesitate to condemn, complain, criticize at behaviors they believe are wrong not knowing the real reason behind those actions.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
