Inevitable? This is what comes from your constant moralizing. I'm trying to understand the urges, the tendencies that many people exhibit. I'm not saying it's right or it's wrong. Your knee-jerk response is to sit in the seat of judgment, and declare this or that self-styled enemy is evil.

All fall short of the glory of God. Rooting out evil is difficult. Amazing how often you think you've made progress and then at the worst possible moment the Three Stooges pop out. Not just goofy but creepy at times. It's scary.

Beating yourself up for being a perpetual motion ass hole rarely does any good. Imagining that you are a paragon of goodness absolutely does not.

Pop quiz time: who said "know thyself."
