Hey, by no means am I saying that people are necessarily good at judging others. Judging does not make one right. But we all do it and people have gotten mighty screwed up about what the right way to do it is, primarily by expecting the government to enforce our individual views on what proper behavior is. Also, the scope has gotten out of whack.
Somehow we have turned it around to where it is more acceptable to judge private behavior than public behavior.
I'm a very judgmental person, I just don't think my judgments should carry much weight with other people and simply try to use them to decide how I will live my life.
My problem with most organized religions (and most of the unorganized ones) is their insistence on the existence of a supernatural realm.
