who thinks it is wrong to refer to someone as a "whigger"?
I know it is wrong to judge someone....however, it is not wrong to judge their charecter.... I just want to see what people in here think about this term, and about those who fall into this group... |

Biblically speaking....it does say to test all spirits in the book of James.....the only way to test is to judge something.....this does not mean that you are judging the person, but only their actions.... |

Dude, you're contradicting yourself. Either you believe judgement is wrong, or it isn't, you can't have it both ways. And as for the bibilical reference, yeah, I don't discuss religion with anyone I'm not related to. |

That is like someone thinking one is automatically a bad person just because they have been to prison....as if they will never change....in a sense....that is a form of "bias" as well... if you know one has been in prison, will you not be untrusting of them? The fact that they have been in trouble in the past makes you think they will do something to you, or your property...something along those lines.. |

Just out of curiousity, is this something people have labeled you, or something you've labeled someone else who doesn't fit into the little box created by society? |

It's not so much a judgement as it is an observation of "it is what it is". If someone puts out a certain image, they're only labelling themselves. Nobody has to do it FOR them. It's called TRUTH, and too many people are afraid of it.

It's called TRUTH, and too many people are afraid of it. If you decide how a certain group of people are supposed to act, in this case white people who "act black," you are labelling them, because you have decided how they should behave based on what they look like. It's not about TRUTH, it's about IGNORANCE, because only an ignorant person would ever assume that the color of someone's skin has anything to do with their behavior. If you believe it does then you are a racist. |

No religion....that is a bunch of crap....I believe in God, not religion.... when you next go to church....depending on what type of church.....ask your pastor..... |

If you believe it does then you are a racist. Wrong. Think again. If someone decides for themselves that they want to look like/act like a punk, then they will be viewed as such. They have nobody to blame but themselves if somebody makes that judgement about them, for this is what they themselves have chosen for society to perceive them as. It's a case of "where there's smoke, there's fire". Personal accountability! |

It's called TRUTH, and too many people are afraid of it. i agree with this. its not about judging them. or condeming them. its jsut about seeking to understand a person's personality and why they do the things they do. society is full of mentally ill, criminals, idiots, biotches, etc etc etc |

I haven't said the word in years....and I am a countryboy.....I have just noticed that there are alot of young people, in particular, running around acting like something they are not.... what I am actually attempting, is to find out the psychological reasoning behind the fact that so many people seem unhappy with what they really are, so they live a facade....false persona... |
