We tend to be so intolerant of other's uniqueness when we are all twacked in our own way.

Excellent Question!
The only answer that I, personally, know of is this: It's our own basic Human Nature. :+)
It takes so much more effort when we start on our own inward journey, that some Folks just naturally point a finger (which finger? Your choice) at others.
I like to spend time taking my own daily & personal inventory.
It leaves me No time to be pointing any finger at others... & I find that it makes me a much more cheerful Person to get along with.

twacked? Anyway, this question seems familiar, like someone has asked me this before. I think it's easier to accept our own weirdness because we're so used to it, and in our heads it's really not that strange. But if someone I know likes peanut butter and banana sandwiches, for instance, I might find that strange because it's just not something I like. Make sense?

Being born of an often eccentric Mother and a smart, yet cynical, Father, I have little option but to accept the total weirdness that is my own crazy life. I hope I have been raised to follow in my parents footsteps and accept the colour provided by other peoples little foibles, as I hope they accept my own.....

Because in ourselves, eccentricity is a unique character trait that makes us special and unique, and broadly attractive to the world around us.
In others, eccentricity is a bad habit that makes them seriously irritating and unpleasant to be around.

I am drawn to, and rejoice in, the eccentricities of others. I can't abide individuals who choose to try to be like so many others by becoming monotonous and clone like.
I try not to judge too harshly but it's hard for me to appreciate those lacking such individuality...

I know I'm basically OK, my weirdness is just fine! If I don't know the depth of a stranger's strangeness, then I'm likely to suspect they may be way over the edge - unless I get to know them.

I agree. But we don't see the things about ourselves that drive other people crazy unless we have people pointing them out to us. I think we are our own prototype. We set the standard for what we find attractive or annoying about other people.

no one is perfect, and we should not judge others, but we should be compelled to help those who do wrong, and if we see they are doing wrong, and it depends on the subject, we should try to correct them, if it is murder or something to that degree, they should not be tolerated and have their life taken away, but if it has to do with another subject, like their orientation, dont point it out unless they ask you

We tend to see only what we want to see in ourselves and only what they do not want us to see when we look at others.
