From the beginning of time, two things have always been consistant - guilt and rationalization. These tools have been used to blur the line between good and evil - joy and sorrow.

Guilt - is God's way of helping protect us from actions that will eventually or immediately bring sorrow to us or those around us.

Rationalization is man's way of trying to remove those guilt feelings so that we can continue doing what we know is not right, without the guilt feelings.

Have you ever known anyone including yourself, that after rationalizing their actions, didn't try to convince all of those around them, that in fact was they were doing was perfectly acceptable, but others should engage in the behavior as well.

In the end, all of those they couldn't convince, they must try to destroy. First they must assume victim status so those people will be regarded as the villians

If not in this life, the next - They will realize that true joy comes from sacrifice, self control, loving others, charity to your fellow man, and a relationhip with God.
When you are engaged in actions that you know in your heart of hearts is wrong, you become self absorbed, self centered and self destructive and vulnerable to other wrong actions.
