Why is pride ( too much ) acceptable nowadays?

IT is always good to feel good about who you are but I am referring to the other extreme of pride, when it comes to the treatment of others.

  • I like my friends to be particularly proud because it showes what a strong personality they have. Not that it would be a good thing to be very proud... but I love people with strong personalities and that kind of pride is just another sign that they have.

  • i am not sure that pride is the word that you are looking for. i think you mean selfishness and selflessness these days is unbalanced. we need to be 70% selfish because it's survival and self respect but we need to be 30% selfless in order to take care of those arounds us. unfortunately many people are overall selfish (selflessness is just as bad) but don't forget it's humans that are like this whether now, in the past or in the future, it has ALWAYS been like this

  • poor treatment of others is never acceptable...regardless of pride or any other reason...

  • Uh...what?! You are so vauge...i can not read what is in your brain that you are trying to explain...try again!!!!
