Nobody (well maybe Anton LaVey and Aleister Crowely) wants to think of themselves as evil or bad.
Having been taught, when was young by my parents, and because of my Conservative background, a realization exists each (including me) is human and humans fail. Being a human one should be more than willing to come forward and say, “I was mistaken, and I made a mistake.” Because of my upbringing I do admit mistakes. Cannot remember the last time I witnessed this or the above quote from a liberal, whereupon a liberal admitted a mistake. Being human, all make mistakes. Liberals must think they are gods, and their attitudes do point out their failings because even not I am morally superior, though sometimes (being human) makes me believe I am (a mistake) when not. Now I’ve gone and sounded like a moderate and that is the worst mistake of all (LOL).
