Why do some people think they have a right to judge?

Because they are close minded.

I heard this bad joke the other day.

"Doctor why do I fear Clowns?"

"You shouldn't fear Clowns they are just different from you. You should hate them. WHAT MY WAY ISN'T GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU!"

People who judge are scared that what they are doing is wrong so they judge everyone else as wrong so they are right. Pretty stupid like the joke.

Sasha...hon...you seem to have some anger issues. When you answered my question you assumed that I was judging. I was not judging you or anyone else in particular. I was curious about the subject because I know how I think and I wanted to understand what other people thought and why they thought that way. I am Christian. However, I'm new to being a Christian (one month new) and I don't appreciate the fact that you are lumpy judgmental people and Christians in the same category. As one can be judgmental and NOT be Christian and vice versa. You seem to be the judgmental one to me. I do feel bad that I might've offended you as that is not my intention. Yahoo Answers is just an avenue for someone like me to ask questions that in general population would not be easily or honestly answered.

Thank you and God Bless you Hon!

you may not see it this way but, your passing judgment to on people who don't have the same values as you by being angry and saying they are wrong is a judgment!. Freedom of speech and passing judgment is a double sided sword. Some people don't like stay at home moms or gays or working moms. To each their own no need to get all hostile over the world that sure dose not helps matters. That Julie chick is a judgmental religious coo coo bird who thinks it's still 1788 don't let her bug you live and let live. I know I'm judgmental to a fault on some issues. that Julie has another post about being board at work funny coming her who believes family should live only on hubby's income lol dose she practice her preach much?:

By asking a question here, they are inviting the "judgements" of others on their particular question. But everyone has an opinion, and wherever this idea came from that you have had to experience what you are commenting on is ridiculous. So maybe this just isn't a great place for you to whittle away your time if you're sensitive to such things.

No one should judge another persons life, life style or how they choose to live their life. You have to remember what goes around comes around. How you are to others rest assured it will happen to you. The Bible states that judgement starts at the house of the Lord not at our houses. No one has a right to judge just make sure if you don't like what someone else is doing don't do it yourself and keep your mouth shut.......................

If you post to a public forum you may be inviting people to judge. Perhaps you should try a smaller group or just personal friends. This is the world wide web, nothing you can do about it here except keep the details of your personal life off the web if you do not want people judging you.

Everyone judges in some way shape or form about people. Some justify it b/c what the bible says..others justify it as freedom of speech. I do agree with you though...I get so aggravated by people that judge me or anyone for that matter...but you can't change them and you have to learn to let things like that just roll off your back and in the trash...we are better than them, b/c we do not judge. Just remember that...

If people would just mind their own business, and stop looking down on others, and just live their own lives, and let others do the same, that be wonderful... live and let live

There is no sense in answering your question. You ALWAYS give Sausage Fingers best answer. Congrats in advance Sausage on your 10 points!

Why is it that people are so uptight about what people say about them ? If you live a good life what do they have to talk about ? I haven't always lived a good life and their advice wasn't always appreciated at the time,but most generally it was true and I needed to here it.Would you go to the Doctor and not want him to tell what was wrong with you?Some times people talk because thy care.
