still looking, you mentioned the addition:
"don't judge me -- until you have walked in my shoes"
I agree that people should consider what a person has went through, and that this statement may sometimes be different then just "don't judge me", but most of the time it is the same.
Every man thinketh his burden is the heaviest
Every man thinketh his burden is the heaviest
Who feels it knows it Lord
Who feels it knows it Lord
Ya running and ya running and ya running away
Ya running and ya running and ya running away
But ya canīt run away from yourself
Could ya run away from yourself
Can you run away from yourself
Canīt run away from yourself
Canīt run away from yourself
When people whine about their situation, I remind them how minor and soft their situation was compared to so many others. And so many others who were in much worse situations don't do the wickedness that some do in minor situations.
Selassie I taught the judges
--------------------------
Since man has been endowed by the Almighty with the special quality of judging his own self, let alone passing a judgment on others, at the hour of pronouncing judgment he must imagine... finding himself to be in the position of the man in the dock. If one passes a judgment after search of his conscience and careful reflection picturing his own self in the position of he who stands before him for trial, and if he does it with good conscience in the interest of the efficiency of administration of justice, there is no doubt that he will pass the right judgment.
--------------------------
In addition, the only time judging comes into play is when making new laws or changing old laws, or trying to determine if somebody really did what they are accused of.
If somebody does something against the judgement of the Almighty and I speak against their wickedness, then I am not judging a thing. I am only speaking of a judgement that has already been passed.
So Fire Burn all evil doers.
