Your passions

Reading Dan Baughman's re-tweet (follow him if you don't) sparked some thoughts.

Here is the original: "If ur passions r more provoked today by this health care plan than they were yesterday by ur neighbors going 2 hell: wonder why?" Dr. Moore.

Others
If your passions are more provoked by March Madness...
If your passions are more provoked by your finances...
If your passions are more provoked by wrongs done to you...
If your passions are more provoked by your hobby...

Why is it so easy to lose passion concerning the lost?

Everything he says seems brilliant... the accent doesn't hurt

A silly idea is current that good people do not know what temptation means. This is an obvious lie. Only those who try to resist temptation know how strong it is.... A man who gives in to temptation after five minutes simply does not know what it would have been like an hour later. That is why bad people, in one sense, know very little about badness. They have lived a sheltered life by always giving in. ~C.S. Lewis
