Tom, we are unleashing our wrath today. That's right. Our righteous anger. Rar.

Okay. Not the last. Rar to you, for sure. Yes. Okay. So as to set the stage, should we talk about what wrath is? Should we allow our friend to step in? Who, our robot friend? Sure. Unless he's going to be a real meanie about it.

Well, this is what – so, of course, I'm thinking about why we're doing sins and virtues this season. Why is wrath one of the seven deadly sins? Yeah. And I think this is interesting, especially in the context of the seven deadly sins specifically, because we've kind of talked about this a little bit around the edges. Why was it at its earliest considered a sin?

Because when left unchecked, it can lead to various harmful and other destructive behaviors, right? So wrath itself might be okay right up until the moment that it leads to death. Violent violence and physical harm against others or holding severe grudges, harboring resentment or seeking revenge. Vengeance is a real negative outcome of right.

Right. I think you said it right. I think it's OK. You're allowed to recognize anger as long as it doesn't lead to. To something else more violent or I see.

Yeah. The early Greeks were really into pillow fighting. And they thought that when you had experience, right, you just hit a pillow real hard and you'll be fine after a little while. They were into the earliest talk therapy. But back then we thought pillows were made of granite. Like we didn't know what comfort was. So everything sucked.

Well, here's the other interesting thing that I found, that some sources actually include in definitions of the destructive behavior of wrath, verbal abuse and hurtful speech or damaged relationships and broken trust.

So that feels like a kind of a social construct now and not just a physical like manifestation of violence.

Yeah. Also, my feelings are hurt. Also, words will hurt me too. Right. Sticks and stones break my bones and so do words. That's what it should say.

But words will never hurt me. Yeah, right. Right. So that's the thing that I think is really interesting. And so the concept, you know, I don't know. What do you think? The Greeks, the early Christian thoughts, you know. At one point in the fourth century, there was a Greek monk, Evagrius Ponticus, who identified eight –

Yeah, status quo. Well, okay. That's where I am. That's where I found myself really getting sidetracked about this whole thing. Because, you know, we talk about all the history of rap. Yes, it was on Seven Deadly Sins and the Greeks and the Romans threw people at lions and as an exercise of catharsis. But really, I'm interested in pop culture, right? I'm interested in why.
