Anger in itself does not make you at bad person. The way you handle your anger is the deciding factor of whether or not you will be considered a bad person. Anger is healthy because it is an emotion that makes you aware that something is wrong in a situation and needs immediate attention. The Bible says, be angry and sin not. Even Jesus got angry a few times in the Bible.

I think judging a person by anger alone is foolish. Anger has its own pros and cos. Being angry at stupidity, selfishness and irresponsibility is not wron. But a person can become from angel to devil because of anger. Anger will become a strength if used in a right way and it can also become our destroyer . Getting angry is not wrong but how u express it is that matters.

Thanks for endorsing my view.I re,member this at this moment “Anger is a great force. If you control it, it can be transmuted into a power which can move the whole world.”

I think you're right. I especially like your point about anger being a destroyer and strength. It can motivate to go to great action that you wouldn't have done otherwise. It can also lead you out of control so that you do action that is completely disastorous.

no not necessarily because angry persons might be short tempered from the birth and may have a good mind in the inside

An angry person cannot be termed a bad person. But the way that person projects that anger might make people think that the person is bad. All of us are angry at certain things around us. But a person who uses bad language when he/she is angry and shows it physically will not be a good person in my books.

A person cannot be judged solely on the basis of his anger. Anger is a natural emotion and getting angry at stupidity is an automatic process. The point is how much or how frequently one gets angry, if someone is getting angry every now and then....then cetainly, he will not be liked by many people. Controlled display of anger...(e.g. not raising one's voice etc.) will tell a lot about a person's character. Excellent Post!

I think anger is a normal. Everyone experiences it but it depends on how you reach. I find loud and violent outbursts to be scary. I don't think you can judge a person on anger alone. Some people have been pushed to anger by a serious of complex situations.

You shouldn't judge a person for getting angry, because that's a human emotion. But if it's just an angry person, who is mean and hateful to others all the time just because they hold so much anger for life, then I'd judge them as angry and mean.

Anger sometimes can be a good thing if you use it in a good way. To be angry at poverty and injustice can lead to taking steps for positive changes.

Hi & Hello my friend Balasri. I think, NO. An angry does not necessarily be a bad person. As angry is an activity to vent out dissatisfaction or disagreement to certain matter and always carry the factor element. Yes I do, I can judge a person by anger alone through their body language, voice language and the power of language. Sometimes they are on very moderate body language but their power of words, especially when they are using idioms to convey their anger. As words are more sharper that the sharpened sword. Totally wrong if to be angry at stupidity, selfishness and irresponsibility because they need monitoring and control through rules and regulations. Just like on/in mylot, the function of discussion guideline. Stupid - inability to learn, Selfishness - dislike sharing and irresponsibility - no focus for teamwork objectives. HAPPY DAPPY.

no its really very tough to judge a person by ihs nager only.because anger is a feeling an emotion,which everyone has within himself.its not wrong to be anger since its just an outburst of the feeling deep inside us.however hte way you bshoe your anger does really puts a mark.one should know how to ocntrol their emotions.getting anger on stupid and irresponsible things is not good for himself as well as it leaves a bad impact on others.a peson can be very good but if he doesnot have control over his emotions then people say him bad and also vice versa happens.
