The Judge

Good judgment comes from experience, and experience comes from bad judgment.- Barry LePatner

To judge or not to judge? Is this really a question? I mean in all sense regardless of your moral and religion, we all naturally judge to an extent in which would be harmless. But we also tend judge to far – we seem presume, assume that what we see is what we get, what they say is what the speak, what they do is what they live. At some level of modesty yes, someone wearing black eyeliner or has multiple gothic symbols over their body could be taken as a Goth – we can think that for sure but maybe they are someone who has a liking for symbols and simply overdo their eyeliner?

Judging is state of forming an opinion or estimation of something. It can be to make a decision or reach a conclusion after examining all factors. Now realistically to gather all factors of a person this would take an extent of a relationship to at least form some conclusion of someone – yet then again friendships aren't always the truth, sometimes you think you know it all when really you know nothing. So to judge someone (in a technical) sense this would require you to know the person, examine their characteristics and have knowledge of their life.

I don't think seeing someone for 30 seconds down the street is covering all factors…

So what do we call it? Someone who does this 30 second judging?

I think the best way to name it would be :

A Presumptuous, Assumptuous, Acquisition in response to ones insecurities, jealousy and the failure to identify themselves.

 

“When you judge another, you do not define them, you define yourself.” - Wayne Dyer

“Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven. Luke 6:37
