Avoiding Hatred

Whenever I'm angry, it's in an absence of patience.

It is fine to firmly dislike something, but when that turns into anger, you've gotten way out of line.

Don't steelman a fascist (Wisdom of the Year)

Steelmanning is a method used by super honest debaters, whereby they state the opponent's position better than themselves, before chopping it down. This is as opposed to strawmanning, whereby one makes a distorted version of the opponent's argument, or a strawman, and breaks it down. The goal is to break the opponent's argument in such a way that no part of the argument will survive the attack, as the edge cases are also included when you steelman the argument. However, when you steelman a fascist, you're playing right into their trap. A fascist wants to gain popularity, and they want you to strengthen their argument as well as possible. However, once you have done your part, they won't let you deal the breaking blow. They will silence you by whatever means necessary. A fascist is wicked. But the worst part is that, you never know you're steelmanning a fascist until you've steelmanned them. So if you ever encounter them, don't try to correct your mistake...

Is having a religion or not having one more good?

I'd say this question is one that has a category error. There reason is because the question is about morality, and the categories (adherence to religion, morality) do not have a direct mapping to each other. The nature of question rests upon the idea that religious people have a moral code to follow, while the non-religious do not. But the moral code of the religious people can be problematic, and the non-religious people may have a moral code of their own. As for the question of the existence of different moral codes, I'll kick that aside. That is because different perspectives exist, and there is no set of logical principles (and there never will be, at least by my religion) to determine objective morals. So then, regarding the question, my answer is this: Adherence to or Non-Adherence to a Religion is not an Indicator of Adherence to or Non-Adherence to a Moral Code. Religion provides a moral code. But that does not mean those who claim to adher to a religion follows the sa...
