I can't stand when people think they are better than others, like when the rich think they are better than the poor, when they seem to think that God loves them more, the fact that that they are blessed w/ more $$ and prestige of course "proves it."

PLEASE. It could be your wealth is actually a curse.. but you are too blind to see it

It seems that very few people actually, truly believe that all humans are equal in the sight of God. I have to admit i have my moments also... we are programmed to think like that by a worldly, materialistic society.

And then there are other things that annoy me about behavior that is commonplace but still highly unacceptable--  

what common human behavior do you hate the most?

Ignorance.

I am annoyed by pride and ignorance as well.

I would also add -- those who live by emotion (who can't think), and those who are malicious. By "malcious" I mean those who willfully victimize their fellow man, either in their person, their property, or their reputation.

All sins are evil before God, but some sins evoke more compassion than others. We're all weak, frail human beings. But malicious? Not at all. Many human beings, even pagans, heretics, and other non-Catholics, try to be "good people". Maliciously slandering, scheming, murdering, and stealing from our fellow man is something that most of us can say we're above (or at least something we COULD be above, with a little effort.)

Of course, ANY mortal sin deserves Hell. And I have compassion on my fellow human beings, with fallen human nature, sinners like myself.

But while human nature requires us to be imperfect, and requires a certain amount of sin and fault, it doesn't require ANYONE to be malicious. One can easily avoid being an honest-to-goodness villain.

To be a villain, you have to WANT IT. It's not human frailty that causes someone to willfully lie about another, exploit the poor, defraud wages, commit murder, etc.

going to finish reading but this hit home

malice. I don't get that one, esp when it comes from a priest!!!!!!!!! or a nun... or a family member who is supposed to love you.. malice for no valid or even valid-sounding (subjectively speaking) reason

dont get it... That is straight from Hell

I detest thieves and liars. For a person to work hard and earn their living only to have some one either sneak it away or strong-arm them... con men are the worst- those who worm their way in to a persons trust and then use them...

Pride...  Because it is the root of all evil...   :wink:

a stalker IS

someone who "can't" mind his/her own business
