Philosophy Shmilosophy

There's a good and bad in everyone. What we talked about in class today really relates to this passage. There's an abstract idea in all people whether it's general or complex. Some ideas you'd never expect within a person. That's why you can't judge too quickly and that's the problem with westerners. We're all out to judge right off the bat. Let's say you're in your car at a red light and man with a long beard, ripped shirt, and one shoe walks by; you're probably gonna lock your doors in 2 seconds. That guy might just be having a bad day......maybe. But it's our natural reaction to feel secure asap when you see sights like that man. Judging is so apparent these days that sometimes the good or the bad is overshadowed by ONE sight, gesture, or statement.
