Why are people so bold to judge others in who they are and then are offended when they are themselves judged?

Question

I recently had read about comments on Sinead O'connor. If I could shave my head and belt out a beautiful voice such as hers that in a sense, brought me to my knees...She may have done some crazy things...but haven't we all? Funny how we can judge others in the spotlight, but what if we were there? What if you really had the chance to tell her what you thought? We are bold when we are in our saftey zones. Sinead is a strong woman who stands firm in her beliefs...I think that people wish they had this and in envy make fun of her. I would like to say on a final note, be careful when you judge, you will have the chance to be judged yourself...

Answer 1

Yeh, none of us are without flaw but when Sinead decided to rip up a picture of the pope on tv she went too far (in some people's minds). It was utterly disrespectful and even though we all have our issues, not many people (hopefully) would be that disrespectful.

Answer 2

I hear ya there i think what Sinead got crammed down on was that she ripped a picture of the pope up on tv. Some Thought that was sacreligious

Hey i agree with ya it aint easy bein in public life that's why i don't follow the celebrity gossips shows and stuff like that i mean come on people these people have a right to a private life too.

I don't judge anyone theres a little thing called the golden rule treat others how you wanna be treated i base my life on that

I am firm in my beliefs too hey others have had worse done to them too

Kudo s girl I agree with ya

Answer 3

Some people feel that others don't have the same rights as they do....just look at the Dixie Chicks! I mean, there have been letters and letters to the editors about it....all these people expressing THEIR opinion, but somehow don't think the DC's should have had that right....whether or not you agreed with what they said. Same with Sinead O' Connor. I remember watching that episode of SNL and it was a political statement that she had every right to express. Too many people don't understand that freedom of speech, expression, etc. applies to EVERYONE, not just those that share your opinion or belief. I always admired what Sinead did personally.

Answer 4

We are all human... the truth hurts and nobody likes to hear it about themselves. I think we are quick to judge what other people are doing because it makes other people look at there flaws and not there own.
