However, some Christians believe that in certain situations, righteous anger can be effectively used to help create justice. 

It refers to anger that Christians feel is acceptable because it is directed against something that God would not agree with. 

Jesus himself showed righteous anger when he drove the sellers from the Temple in John 2:13-17]]> 2017-06-06 12:06:56 UTC https://padlet.com/dbell16/kf5w2n2yd212/wish/175369990 dbell16 https://padlet.com/dbell16/kf5w2n2yd212/wish/175370349 For Christians, an important element of righteous anger is that it is controlled and used positively to change a situation. It can be easy to make mistakes when responding emotionally or impulsively in anger; righteous anger should be channelled into positive action that will improve a situation.]]> 2017-06-06 12:09:28 UTC https://padlet.com/dbell16/kf5w2n2yd212/wish/175370349 dbell16 https://padlet.com/dbell16/kf5w2n2yd212/wish/175370652 Many people would argue that injustice must be visibly opposed in order to stop it. 

Some believe that one of the best ways to do this is to take part in protests.

The law in the UK allows peaceful protest in public so people can demonstrate their views.

If the protest involves a procession or mark, the police must be told at least 6 days before it takes place.

The police can request to make changes to the march or apply to a court to have a march banned.

They may do this to if they feel that the march might intimidate other people or if they predict that violence will be involved.]]> 2017-06-06 12:11:31 UTC https://padlet.com/dbell16/kf5w2n2yd212/wish/175370652 dbell16 https://padlet.com/dbell16/kf5w2n2yd212/wish/175371260 Violent protest is illegal in the UK and many people do not support it because they believe it is an ineffective and damaging way to create change, particularly if people lose their lives in the violence

Others believe that violent protest is sometimes necessary to make a government take notice, particularly if a government is abusing their position of power and refusing to pay attention to people's needs.

in 2015, the Catholic Church supported the protests in the Democratic Republic of Congo against a government that was unjustly delaying election, even though protests turned violent.]]> 2017-06-06 12:15:25 UTC https://padlet.com/dbell16/kf5w2n2yd212/wish/175371260 dbell16 https://padlet.com/dbell16/kf5w2n2yd212/wish/175372110 2017-06-06 12:19:55 UTC https://padlet.com/dbell16/kf5w2n2yd212/wish/175372110 dbell16 https://padlet.com/dbell16/kf5w2n2yd212/wish/175372298 2017-06-06 12:20:53 UTC https://padlet.com/dbell16/kf5w2n2yd212/wish/175372298 dbell16 https://padlet.com/dbell16/kf5w2n2yd212/wish/175372621 2017-06-06 12:22:27 UTC https://padlet.com/dbell16/kf5w2n2yd212/wish/175372621 dbell16 https://padlet.com/dbell16/kf5w2n2yd212/wish/175372688 2017-06-06 12:22:59 UTC https://padlet.com/dbell16/kf5w2n2yd212/wish/175372688
