Judgement

In today's society, there is a vastly larger movement for universal acceptance. The message we seem to be spreading is that the ideal human being is not fit to judge, and therefore should not at all. It is a theory that is easily backed up by some universal "truths."

That means that it doesn't matter if you're fat, skinny, tall, short, deformed, a drug user, alcoholic, a prostitute, a murderer, black, white, brown, yellow, red, vulgar, chaste, godless, religious, evil or pure.

It's supported by the bible too. James 4:12 says "There is only one Lawgiver and one Judge, the one who is able to save and destroy. But you - who are you to judge your neighbor?"

But we can't really live like that. Because we live in a world where there is evil and we must judge to survive. Some people do not deserve second chances. And for all of you still thinking that everyone deserves a second chance, you are forgetting that there are two worlds, two laws that we must subject ourselves to. Earthly law and Spiritual Law.

I don't know what I think about judgment. But then again I suppose there are two different kinds of judgement. Pre-emptive and reactive. And I guess it's the pre-emptive that's bad. Yeah, that makes sense.

And happy 150th blog post. :)

  1. While that may be true, it's all the "zero tolerance" garbage that I'm seeing, and the complete lack of common sense in the judging that is being done.

    We humans are capable of judging ourselves, but it just seems to me that we screw it up quite a bit :\
