Are you judgemental, but choose to believe otherwise?

Question

Are you judgemental, but choose to believe otherwise?

Answer 1

No I'm never judgemental. I have strong opinions that I know I'm always right about, but what's wrong with that? lol

Answer 2

If I chose to believe otherwise, would I answer yes?  If I were not judgemental, wouldn't I remain open to the fact that I could be, at least sometimes, and answer yes?  Uh..ooh, headache, Oh my, migraine...need caffeine...later.

Answer 3

I'm not very judgemental... there are differences between judgments and observations.  Sometimes I am, sometimes I'm not.

Answer 4

Personally I try not to be, but there are times when I catch myself doing that.  I then correct myself.  I think whoever says they are NOT judgmental might be telling fibs, because no body is perfect.

Answer 5

yes adn no - I have been trying to battle with judgementalism all my life so far - the impulses to judgements are like little silverfish - barely discernible and slippery looking - holding one by the tialadn rooting it out is delicious soall the judgements I am unaware of I probably deny till hauled up about it by friends. I dont even know if they are mine any more they seem to be introjected by osmosis or soem kind of natural process of ingestion when I look at my previously hidden judgements they seem so 'off the wall'.

Answer 6

Was very judgemental, altho I would have said I had high morals/ideals.

Now  am very broadminded and non-judgemental.  I  think my change has come through maturity and knowledge.  I now try to find out as much as possible before I would make any judgements.

Answer 7

Yes, we all are judgmental, but I don't necessarily choose to be otherwise.  It is assumed by many that being judgmental is a bad or unfair thing.  I would argue it is not.  Our judgments tend to be based on our experiences and knowledge.  Take the old saying, "If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and sounds like a duck..."  Judgments become problematic when they are based on ignorance or if you are not open-minded enough to give someone the opportunity to prove your initial negative judgments wrong.

Answer 8

over certain issues yes, most definitely

Answer 9

I would say that im very much like that, yes!! = ]

Answer 10

yes, my life's quote would be - "Do as I say, not as I do".

Answer 11

Answer 12

who ...me ... of course ...its one of the traits of a death eater

Answer 13

i dont judge wats the point the only time i really do judge someone is if they r a rapist,child molester and so on....

Answer 14

No,judging and discriminating is a product of a healthy mind.

Answer 15

Great question!

Today, the word, judgmental, in itself, connotes some sense of unexamined self-righteousness that, in fact, is not true.  As such, it's been getting a bad rap throughout most of the past fifty years or so.

To be human is to be judgmental.

For example, I and everyone else that responded to this question -or, for that matter, decided to pass on this question- had to make a judgement, whether wittingly or not.  You, at some point make a decision to ask and post the question ... therein is the essence of judgement.

As such, I'm not only judgmental, but happily so as it is one of the critical components of our human insignia.

Do I always present wise judgements ... now that's a question for another day.

Answer 16

Is it a job requirement for answering questions here??

No one told Me .......!  LOL

I was sure madness was the only survival skill needed

Answer 17

Everyone is judgmental at one time or another. Whenever I catch myself doing it, I make a conscious effort to stop and remind myself that I want people to be accepting of me so I must be accepting of others.
