On Judging Others

yes because from your post, you show you arn't? i mean you show how truely mature you are just from this, grow up faith..

Maturity is now defined by adolescent intrusive rudeness. Interesting. Wonder what PC will come up with next.

teach you to read maybe?, i wasn't calling people names, now was i? i guess as people have said you can dish it out but you can't take itas for judging others, it is making statements that apply to others but not to yourself, such as the pharisees would make laws that they wouldn't followEdited by ReverendDG, : addon

Giving up in this manner, is like an utter self love with your own position. Its a self love that prevents a number of people from actually understanding and learning new things in life. I am not immune to the self love either, I've found that the self love with my position on knowing physics is what killed my ability to understand it.Admittedly I am not immune to being incivil, but I am willing to reexamine what I've put down. And to consider the appropriateness.

Thats an appeal to the harsh cruel world mindset. The world is only as harsh and as cruel as each of us makes it to be.The world can be made better, admittedly its no where near close to all birds and flowers, but every flower grown and every bird hatched is one more step toward a world of birds and flowers.

i could say the same thing about you, since you seem to not come up with anything resembling anything other than ad-hom attacks

The problem is, you don't seem to have any basic knowledge about life.You are claiming that because I did not do anything about the people I felt sorry for, that I am engaging in some despicable act because I felt sorry for them. Goodness gracious--turn on the news. I feel sorry for people every day that have some horrible thing happen to them. Am I supposed to do something about all those people?You also seem to be claiming that feeling sorry for them is a despicable act in itself, an idea which I think is warped.

PC what are you appealing to? You make a comment yet you don't explain how it relates to PC. How has maturity, as defined by adolescent intrusive rudeness, been relegated to becoming PC?

i guess if you want to look at that way, i don't, i consider teaching to be a meaningful thing, and you are useful to other people i should have said the emotion is not very useful or meaningful not the person, the person can do more than pity the disabled, talk to the person for instance, who ever said it was always full of baby birds and flowers?
the people who posted about how happy in the world they are focused on the happy things in life, you from your posts, did not, that seems to be the difference

I was responding to Jar's nonsense. That's right. I was trying to balance the idea. I was trying to present a realistic picture of life.You got a problem with that?

What constitutes a basic knowledge about life? Does it have to be life experiences that are similiar to yours? Do I have to come to the same conclusion as you about life? Yes, I am claiming that. Because (ABE: what you had written has the appearance of) a superficial examination of the situation insetad of examining the situation at a deeper level. No, to ask anyone to solve the world's problems is absurd because it isn't solvable by a solitary person. But everyone can always work to improve the lives around them. I claimed knee jerk reactions are despicable.Edited by Discreet Label, : Whatever is in the ABE parentheisis, added for clarity of writing.

considering how bleak you started to make it out to be i can see why jar said the things he did no, that really wasn't 'balancing' anything, you make everything out to be arbitrary when a lot of things have a basis for what ever reason yes, i do, you got problem with that? my reason is you are tipping it the other way in to total cynicism when it should be a good balance of both struggle and joy, i agree its not all happiness, you shouldn't dwell on the pain though it leads nowear

And exactly which jars nonsense was that? Perhaps you can explain this idea of yours in this thread finally.I believe you called the thread, "On Judging Others".How does that tie in with your statement "I was responding to Jar's nonsense."I asume that you are not judging "others" there but rather some unidentified thing you call "nonsense".Is that correct?Do you think you could point us to this unidentified thing you call "nonsense".

All those pictures of birds and flowers that you stuck up there.We were talking about that other thread in which I mentioned the old veterans I saw at the hospital. Everybody jumped all over me for my feelings which were politically incorrect.I was using that example to illustrate the engrained nature of this politically correct morality which tries to dictate people's feelings. We're supposed to go around having nice, politically correct feelings all the time.What a pretense!

How sad. Were you under the impression that those pictures were not of reality? I assume you can show where they said your feelings were politically incorrect? I must have missed those posts. Likewise, I seem to have missed the post were someone said that. Perhaps you can provide the link? Or perhaps you can show us "What pretense" was involved?
