Ouch

"Ask yourself which you would rather be: a good soul whom everyone thought evil, hated, misunderstood, persecuted, and victimized? or an evil soul whom everyone thought good, loved and rewarded? Would you rather be really good but aparently evil, like Socrates; or really evil but apparently good, like the perfectly successful tyrant? Would you rather be brave and thought to be a coward, or cowardly but thought to be brave?

Would you rather be a Catholic or a Kennedy?"
-- Kreeft, Chrstianity for Modern Pagans, p. 80
