A Journal to impart knowledge and facts |
What is the difference between 'judging' someone and simply 'disagreeing' with someone? Is it possible to let someone know you disagree with them without judging them? If you form a conclusion about something someone else does, or says, and stand by your conclusion, with or without pertinent fact, about the situation, your judging. The conclusive nature of judging sometimes goes along with wanting someone to be wrong even though they aren't. I'm sure if you just disagree later facts could change your opinion. Lots of people disagree without bothering to get the other side of a situation. I'm fairly sure there are lots of people who live together or are good friends but have the kind of relationship that allows for disagreement without judgement. Disagreement built the USA two party system. ![]() My dad loved the Cleveland Indians. He would listen to everyone of their games. I think he would be delighted they made it to the playoffs.
