If I judge you, as in "I decide that you are represented in my mind by this identity that exists in my mind" or "you are exactly what my mind tells me you are", do I not liken myself to "god"?
- it presumes flawlessness
- it presumes a relative omniscience
- close enough to relative omnipresence
So even an athiest in purporting strong judgement (e.g. "this is how it is") assumes what I think of as "unbound ego" in regard to the topic.
That's just how it is, undoubtedly.
Idnit?
Now by adding the idnit, did I reign in my ego (assuming it was an actual question)?
If we do not judge, do we die?
Should "thou shalt not judge"?
If we do judge, from where do we garner our authority to do so? What authority is provided by "my life"? What's its scope?
Can judgement be tentative or is "tentative judgement" better suited by another word like "I think" or something, rather than "I know".
I'd better stop there.
