Were you responsible for that angry outburst?

"But I say to you he who is angry with his brother, without cause,
shall be liable to judgements."  Blimy,  I can hear the clouds thunder.


Is you anger a voluntary thing?
"I have tried everything to control my anger", say A N Other,
"..but I just can't. I feel my angry outburst are justified."


But are they, are we accountable for our actions.
Is you anger an involuntary thing.  We may make voluntary efforts to control lit, but like the paralytics inability ot move his limbs, we can't. Is anger then an involuntary sin?
Do you have a choice of doing differently then have an unseemly outburst or ire.
Well that depends on whether you believe that anger is deeply rooted, unconscious, or whether it is just laying there on the 'free
choice surface.


We are into the principle of alternate possibilities and the issue is not the actions the persons performed but how were these actions brought about
