I thought I've heard most of everything but I admit, this one is a new one on me.
"Righteous anger"
https://www.yahoo.com/news/man-said-com ... 48610.html
Clearly, the man in which the article speaks of has some sort of 'issue' with sexuality in general. At best, I find him laughable almost to a point of being disturbed. That aside, is there such a thing as 'righteous anger'?
Have you seen it?
Have you used it?
Is it simply a means to vent?
Or is there something to it? And why don't we see it more often?

FWIW
"Righteous anger is getting angry at the things that are not of God. It is an anger that is grieved by sin, death, and any form of evil. Righteous anger is a characteristic of Jesus Christ that we as Christians receive when we accept Him as our Lord and Savior and choose to follow Him. We are to be angry at the things that oppose Christ and His image."

Guess the guy in the video feels girls in bikinis oppose Christ and His image.

I'm wondering when Christ taught that thou shalt not wear a bikini on the beach. The man involved claimed that he had been exposed to pornography at a young age and that it had destroyed him. He clearly has a personal problem to deal with. I think it would be more accurate to describe his behaviour as self-righteous anger.

Gender ideology is anti-science, anti truth.

Re: Righteous anger
Post #5The idea I have gotten from what I've read is that only righteous people can have righteous anger. Jesus can be angry and righteous because he's righteous. I cannot, because I'm not righteous.
I don't care for peas either, though I like lima beans. I always have to make sure when I go to a new Chinese place that the vegetables in the vegetable fried rice don't include peas. They're so mushy and nasty. Downright demonic food.
