"The greatest want in the world is the want of men.
Men who will not be bought or sold
Men who in their inmost souls are true and honest.
Men who do not fear to call sin by its right name.
Men who's conscience is as true to duty as the needle to the pole.
Men who will stand for the right though the heavens fall."

Again, there's a bit of false logic here. Stubbornness for God may be laudable - but sometimes stubbornness is just stubbornness.

Yes, that is true, if it is indeed stubbornness. But in some cases, I think you will agree that what some consider stubbornness, others would consider an heroic standing by one's principles or by the truth as one sees the truth.
