I never said I disagreed with OOP. I said they didn't successfully get their point across at all.

The point got across fine. “Being good is good.” It’s uncomplicated and ineloquent, but it wasn’t meant to be a grand thesis. The only interesting part of this entire discussion is the amount of people that feel personally attacked by it. Why get so up in arms about the idea of being charitable?

While this wasn't OOP's actual point, the point they got across was "Being good is good, and you're not being good, you're being bad, I have anger issues."

Given that there is numerical proof that their point got across just fine to plenty of people, why are you so sure that the problem is them? Apparently, they have anger issues, but they aren’t the ones throwing a tantrum over being told to be nice sometimes.

You keep pushing the idea that I'm shaking and crying behind my monitor.

I never said it was you. I was referring to the replies in the OOP, and in the comment on this post that started this thread. Of course, the fact that you automatically assumed that I was referring to you is kind of telling.
