But we're not.
And those people who are? Safe? Contained? Not trying to show off?
Well, we just can't see their thoughts.
We spend a lot of time trying to merge our own moral goodness with the track record of our acts, trying to make them concur, that is, so we can tell ourselves things about ourselves.
We don't have to be fundamentally bad if we allow that we've done fundamentally bad things.
Inflexibility is a sin as much as committing any outward sin is.
But if we've done bad things we should be clear about those things, to ourselves at least.
