Dancing around judgment of differing beliefs and opinions

[Silent3]

4. A major point of the OP is that people blur those two meanings...

...of judgment quite a bit, not just in how they talk about contentious issues like religion, but in how they think about such issues and how they think disagreement should be handled.

The result is a lot of people getting judgmental in the condemnation sense about other people exercising judgment in the evaluation sense, offering sanctimonious advice and mind-numbing platitudes, recommending mental gymnastics which make no sense and which they themselves are incapable of performing.
