[QUOTE]Not gonna lie, I know its an UO, but yeah I generally judge people on welfare and food stamps driving expensive cars, with iphones, designer purses and shoes, etc. Yes, I know there are always exceptions where it's family jewelry, or they had a good job and lost it. But I'm from a city and area where welfare abuse is rampant, and probably 7 out of 10 people on welfare are abusing it, and stores and people are busted left and right for welfare fraud, then yes I have this mentality.

I agree with every bit of this. It is a very common thing in my area as well. There are a lot of housing projects around here and you always see newer audis and beemers in the parking lots. Like, wtf their rent is $38 a month and car payment is $500+. How does that shiiit work?!

I judge people who put the word "homemade" in front of a food item to make it seem like it is some how magically amazing.

Going home to make some homemade brownies and homemade cookies and homemade iced tea.

Eagles, I think where the judgement is coming from, is that people will tattoo bible verses on them, such as the law calling homosexuality an abomination, but yet ignore the fact that 2 verses away, it's forbidding them from getting a tattoo. It's one of those things where if you're going to use the bible to tell people how to live their lives, then you should probably follow it yourself.

That's what I thought.

Don't get me started on the stop sign thing. I'm pretty sure that Boston drivers have no idea how four-way stops work. I have to drive through one every day, and while I understand that they might actually be more efficient, it doesn't stop me from yelling "IT'S MY EFFING TURN!" every single day.

[QUOTE]Some people/denominations/whatever interpret 1 Cor 6:19-20 as being anti-tattoo "Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; 20 you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your body..." At least the church and school I grew up tossed that interpretation in there. They used that verse against tattoos, piercings that weren't in the ear (apparently Jesus was okay with holes in the ears, but nowhere else) drugs, getting drunk, fornication, etc.

I was going to mention that verse :) I still don't think that verse means getting a tattoo is or piercings is wrong or hypocritical. I know there are some denominations that argue that, I just disagree. Maybe if my tattoo said "I love satan" I could see it.

The only verse that specifically mentions tattoos is Leviticus 19:28 and it talks about not cutting your flesh or getting a tattoo for the dead.

Right, and I believe the reason why that was forbidden is because it was a custom of neighboring "heathen" communities, that worshiped other gods.

Beachy730 · June 2012

I judge people who judge religion or relgious people. That's fine if you don't agree with a certain religion, or any religion at all, but you don't need to judge people who do. Especially people who judge Catholics for being intolerant, when in fact you are being intolerant of their views. Theirs a lot of shiiit I don't agree with, but other people do and that's their choice. I don't think religion and politics should mix, but that doesn't mean I'm going to judge someone for their beliefs. I always thought polygamy was horrible, but after watching Sister Wives I see how it works for people. I don't agree with it, but I respect them to make that choice and live their lives how they choose.

But I don't think it goes against the teachings. Hence why we have different denominations, because I don't interpret that 1 Cor. verse to mean I can't get a tattoo. I don't care that much either, I don't even HAVE a tattoo. People just like to throw Leviticus around when a lot of that isn't even relevant to us here and now.

I don't judge people who do personal sales. Shiiit I wouldn't have a Pampered Chef kitchen if not. BUt I judge when you're spamming my Facebook wall, or sending my e-vites to your book parties, and trying to convince me how much I need your products on a regular basis. If I go to your party, sure, try to convince me. But on my FB wall, no thanks.

Also, I have a FB friend who recently lot a ton of weight with Insanity. She apparently now sells it, and has multiple posts a day about her workouts, her products she is selling, how she is using her products, etc. I truly am impressed and proud of you for your hardwork and weightloss, but I don't need to read about it all day everyday.

BrooklynBride20 · June 2012

I judge the tourists who come to NYC and spend the entire time complaining about the following:

everything is so expensive - well known fact, deal with it or select a vacation location more suitable to what you'd like to spend.
it is so dirty here: stop throwing your garbage on the ground and on the subway tracks
people are so rude: Only when you do things that are against all common sense such as block the door to the subway so that others can't get on or off the train, abruptly stop at the top of the subway stairs to look around, congregate in large groups in the middle of a sidewalk that is actually used for walking. The majority of the people in NYC are helpful and will help you with directions, etc. Just be respectful of the fact that we are not on vacation.

Beachy, my friend's BF is like that. He's an atheist, big into science...which is fine. Really. What WASN'T fine were his FB updates of fundamentalists protesting homosexuality...tagged with his constant statuses about "This is why religion is bad", "Religious people are intolerant," "All intelligent, rational people are atheists", "If you believe in Jesus, you have an immature mind," etc. Just...no. That's intolerance and stereotyping, too.

That does make sense, I see what you're saying. But the Bible said don't do a lot of things in the OT (like don't eat "unclean" meat), and then Jesus came so a lot of the legalism could be done away with. Does that make sense? That is why, if my husband were to die tomorrow, I don't have to marry his brother like I would have if I were living in pre-Jesus days, according to the OT law. I'm not saying the entire OT is invalid or anything, I just think people put too much focus on it when it comes to "rules."
