The problem is we're far too impressed by the bouts of savagery and impressive verbal acrobats anger produces. In fact it's usually hollow and disfiguring.Famous reviewernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30643113.post-49504861490046190412010-12-02T12:24:38.184+00:002010-12-02T12:24:38.184+00:00Really?

They have to write a few lines on suffering/redemption/good/evil. That is what RE teaching is in the UK now. Watch Green Mile/My Beautiful launderette/Stigmata/Shawshank and do a report.
