why do people judge others?
I hate when people judge a person. I do not think that is right. There is a guy in my class that I have been hanging out with. He has done things in his past that "Christians" do not approve of and he still does things that "Christians" do not approve of. People tell me not to hang out with him because he is so called bad. That is what they hear from others. However, since hanging out with him, I realize that what people say about him is not all true. He respects my morals and my beliefs. He wont do anything around me because he doesnt want to offend me.
I totally dislike how "Christians" judge others. Judging those that have a different lifestyle than we do. Do not want to hang out with people because they choose to have an alternative lifestyle. Do not hang out with those that do drugs or smoke or drink. Why is it that "Christians" allinate themselves from people of that lifestyle. Personally, I do not think that is right. I strongly believe that we can hang out with them and not be a part of whatever they are doing. I also think that this is what gives "Christians" a bad name. This gets me all made. How are we supposed to witness to people without showing that we care about them and that we are willing to hang out with them. No one is going to listen to someone who condemns them because of their decisions. Another thing I dislike is how "Christians" try to shove their beliefs down people's throats or in their face. That is not a way to witness to others either. That would totally turn me off so then why to many people try to do it that way. I do not understand "Christians" sometimes either because the way they act seems to totally contradict what the Bible teaches them and how Christ acted. Christ sat among the tax collectors, the prostitutes, and other people of low character. He showed them compassion and loved them as a person. He did not shy away from them. Then why do "Christians" shy away from them today? It hurts me and breaks my heart when I see people treated like this. Sometimes, I am afraid to share my beliefs with them because I am going to be grouped in with the "Christians" that I talked about earlier. I am so not like that. I never want to be like that. I accept a person for who they are. I do not judge them. I tend to keep an opened mind and make my own conclusions about a person and not let others make them for me. I am my own person. No one can tell me what I should believe and who I should hang out with. A lot of people can support this - I am not like everyone else.
What good comes about from judging a person? I do not think there is any good that comes about from judging someone. There is good in not judging a person. It is hard to explain the good that comes from not judging a person. I think some of the good comes in that they will give you the time of day when you talk with them and another good comes in that they will be a friend. And who knows what will happen from you not judging a person. I have a new friend that is a lot of fun and I enjoy hanging out with who respects me because I dont get on to his case about things. I have this because I choosed not to judge him.
So I ask again, Why do people judge others?
In other news, things are going ok for me. Only 3 more weeks or so for my online classes and then I receive my degree. In less than a month, I will be on my way to MO to set my place up there. I have receive confirmation on my classes. I think these classes are going to be a big change from the undergraduate classes I have taken. Oh, the into to evidence class is ok. I think he likes to share more stories than anything. Stories are ok to a certain extent and as long as they help to prove a point. I was talking with Stitch ealier tonight. The prof (dr. R.) came up. He is the primary prof for federal,state, local government at LU. He loved to tell stories. I think we heard the same stories over and over. Sometimes he would tell the same story in an 1.5 class period. He was a cool prof. The class wouldnt be the same without him.
I think that is about all for know. I do know there are some people out there waiting for this post. So I hope they are happy :) Anyways, I miss all of you from LU. Maybe I will get to see yall sometime soon.
