shame in the Bible
Line 1: Line 1: −
'''Shame''' is the sense of embarrassment and regret felt when one is aware of having done something [[sin]]ful, stupid or wrong. A sense of shame is essential if one is to have a mature, adult sense of responsibility. [[Liberal]]s frequently lack a developed sense of shame. Instead of taking responsibility for their own actions and their consequences, they prefer to blame any negative consequences on 'society', economic forces or other people.

==Shame in the Bible==

The first recorded instance of shame was in the [[Garden of Eden]], when after [[Adam and Eve]] ate from the [[Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil]], they realized their [[nudity]] and felt shame. Thus, shame is a naturally intended part of all of us and we must use it to develop [[humility]].
