Answer 1

Answer 2

People have an entitlement to their opinions, it represents the true freedom; freedom of thought. In some way we all do this. I'm sure that I've been assessed and judged by others who read what I write and answer, and what ever conclusions they have derived are fine by me. They should be; and are afforded this freedom with my complete blessing. More to the point of my way of thinking in this matter is that I do not bend anyone away from how they are. Either it be wretched, or divine in nature; what they think is theirs; not mine. By thinking about the nature of another Soul in one way or another we are able to slot People into the groups that make up our personal references, some People are beyond this; they see beyond the moment. We all learn this as we grow from infantcy to adulthood, it is when we unlearn these references that we are able to open our hearts; and our minds. To compare someone to someone else and asign their virtues or sins onto this new individual is inherent to our being, it is a survival skill from times gone by; when encountering someone new often was life threating. Quick to judge meant getting out alive!! Being wrong only meant hurting someone elses feelings; not losing Your life! Looking upon this that way it makes sense, unlearning this skill is not easy; it still can come in quite handy; even in these more civil times. Consider this however, if You will; we're never far from where we were; the veneer of civility is only that; a fasade. We are what we are, Mortals; with all that complexity; each of us a little different; some more so; all of us the same species. I hope this helps, I've made it my business to understand this. I just keep being me; judged; not judged; I remain invictus to myself; I can't change; so I never do. As perhaps we all should be, forgive and be forgiven these trespasses we percieve in each other. It's the Love that makes it all work, everyone can feel that; and there is no judging when there is Love; just the Love.

Analysing the content of questions and the manner in which they have been typed gives people an insight in to the nature of the person asking the question. People want to be able to identify with each other, so when they come across a strange question, they automatically asume the questioner is also strange! You can argue whether this is right or not, but it's just social behaviour.

Answer 4

It is easier to judge people then to think.People that judge so quickly for this and other reasons loose out on getting to know a person.Who just might turn out to become a friend.

Answer 5

There's a phrase that goes around " First impression is the last impression ".

By asking dirty questions or really silly ones, some people ruin their reputation immediately.

As far as asking meaningful questions is concerned, there's another saying : "A person who asks a question is a fool for 5 seconds. The one who doesn't, is a fool forever!"

Answer 6

We're supposed to study all these folks? This is for questions and answer and sarcasm and fun. Hope no one makes too many of their decisions based on this web site (especially the medical questions, jeeeez)
I think you must be as sweet as Doris Day OR about 14 years old.

Answer 7

Cause they are set in their ways and don't understand the word respect.

Answer 8

because "you are what you think"[ write].. and your question is the only information they have about you.. if this concerns you [others opinions.. and it should not..] be carefull what you write... my suggestion is be who you are and dont be too "thin skinned" about what others , esspecialy uniformed strangers, think!
