Reply #234: Yes and no. We all judge each other, then go on from there.

Of course we all judge each other. The trick is not letting that judgement rule how you feel and act towards someone. We judge by sex, clothes, age, height, glasses, reminder of someone else, etc. I judge and have been judged. But I also talk with people who don't meet the standard to find out things about them. Especially at this time in history I talk about politics with everyone. The repub guys at the feed store. The grocery clerk. The elderly little old man with the anti-bush stickers and the elderly little old woman with the pro-bush stickers.

Yes, she prejudged someone, asked a question of her, pointed out a negative part of her beliefs. The shopper was embarassed because she realized something she had voted for turned out being wrong and someone, a stranger even, had pointed it out to her. If shopper truly had no remorse, she wouldn't have felt bad about it. I do not have a problem with this whole thing. finis
