Judge Not, Lest Ye Be Judged

Judge Not, Lest Ye Be Judged

You’re gonna be judged. I’m gonna be judged. Every-fucking-body is gonna be judged.

Don’t like it?

Well, tough tittles.

It’s not the judging that’s the problem, though.

It’s acting on it like your judgement is the final arbiter of truth.

When people pre-judge us without our input, then treat us like they know us better than we do, well, it sucks.

So, don’t do that shit to others.

You are just as fallible as the next person.

Judge.

It’s how you’re built. It’s part of our brain’s most primal protection systems. Just don’t act on that, until you have time to suss out the facts and determine whether a person might be more than you see.

And even then, realize you may be wrong.
