Don't be ridiculous Jeff. You do it every day. We all do.
Funny? No. It's a cornerstone of a civilized world. Without it, our grand jury system would fold and our criminal justice system would be in chaos. The very basis or our laws if the placing of our values on others, whether we know them or not.
I can see it now, "Your honor, how can this jury convict my client of child molesting? They're just putting their personal values on him, and they don't even know him!!!"
Jeff, I have no knowledge of the homicidal moron who bombed the 16th street church, but I, and the rest of society, are happy to "put our personal values" into play and judge him never-the-less.
One can withhold judgement about how someone chooses to live his life to a point. That point is when there is evidence that a crime is committed. Nosredna has, admittedly, committed a crime. I don't need to get to know him to form an opinion of him or why he refused to give the details of that crime.
