Discrimination

"Loving uprightness without balancing it with a love for learning will result in the vice of intolerance." This is how I want to begin my post because this quote had a powerful meaning. Some people try to make things better, try to make things the same as they are, the same race, learn the same things, and most of the times they do thins for good. But, indeed there are other times when they do it for bad, because they don't balance uprightness with a love for learning. Throuout history we have examples like Hitler. He wanted to make everyone like the Germans, and he hated Jews, Homosexuals and Black people. When you mix these two together, then he had  perfect excuse to try to exterminate them. As well, we have examples like the Ku Klux Kla, they as well considered the Black people as slaves only, and after slavey was abolished, they began to hide under masks and kill black people. They didn't even know what uprightness as, they were just mere racists. 

People who are upright and mix it with love are good for the world, they help people to get better at things. The most common and clear example, an everyday thing that perhaps little people consider, are teachers. They make us better at what we do, but they are not (supposed to be) racist, they do it with love and to help people, not discriminate them.

I'm not sure how much love has to do with teaching. I guess I love what I teach. You do have a point there.
