Yeah, you're right. I guess at first glance it does seem a little odd... but from the online Merriam-Webster dictionary, temperance is defined as:

1 : moderation in action, thought, or feeling : RESTRAINT
2 a : habitual moderation in the indulgence of the appetites or passions b : moderation in or abstinence from the use of intoxicating drink


My comments in the previous post were actually moderate when compared to how I really feel about how violent criminals such as murderers, child molesters, and rapists should be punished. I really did show restraint by not saying more.
