Ok ready for one of those catch 22 kind of positions. . .? LOL
I am most judgmental of the judgmental.
When I encounter the far right Christians (or anyone so filled with hatred) who are so against anything that "they" feel is ungodly or an abomination. . .
My oldest brother is a pastor and he refuses to speak to my mother.
One of our other brothers recently passed away and my oldest brother came to the funeral home to view the body and pay his respects. . . he spoke to everyone in the building - everyone except our mom that is.
He has 8 children from 2 marriages and one of the sons is gay. . . do you think he associates with his son?
For 8 and a half years he would not speak to me because I was studying martial arts which is founded in eastern philosophy and mysticism (clearly of Satan).
And now for several reasons he outlined to me in a recent email - our conversations need not continue.
So, I said that to say that I find that kind of judgmental attitude hard to accept.
I have come a long way and still have more learning, growing, evolving to do. . .but that is my area of greatest trial.
People who feel the need to use racial slurs, homophobic epitaphs, derogatory terms towards women, . . . .
People who rather than work on solving the problem, would rather complain and be victims.
Yeah. . . that's what I am most judgmental about.
