Are you generally accepting of people, whomever they are? Does it matter what religion they belong to, what Country they live in, how they smell, look, or their habits, whatever they may be?
I know people tend to make judgements of others. I do it too! Infact, just yesterday, I thought that someone was letting his dog loose, just to let the dog run all over the neighborhood, then within about 4 seconds, I hear the person calling for the dog, due to it apparently getting away from him before he could put it on a chain. Then I realized that I shouldn't have thought what I did, because I didn't know what was really happening. :shock:
So, are you generally accepting of others, irregardless of judgements you may make about them? 😀
I am open minded and accepting of people. Its not my place to judge anyone and its not anyone's place to judge me.
Of course, I don't always agree with another person's particular actions/decisions, but as long as it doesn't effect me directly, I usually wont put much thought into it. To each their own.
Everyone has their own moral values and believes. If they believe in something that conflicts with what I believe in then I will have a harder time of accepting these people.
A good example:
Person Max thinks its important to be able to share your opinion on your own government and not being arrested for that.
Person John thinks its okay to have a government that puts you in jail if you critique it.
I wouldn't be able to accept John for believing or thinking like that.
For I value my freedom of speech and anyone or any group that challenges it I see as a threat to my personal freedom and that of the free world. Though not all are free, hopefully one day they will be.
More specific on your question:
I'm a easy going person and can be around most type of people without issue. This doesn't mean I don't judge sometimes to fast of people based on not enough info to go by. We all do this btw without actually realizing it most of the time. But this is part of being human.
To look at others and have thoughts about them in a negative or positive or sometimes neutral order. Its nature. Not everything is as it seems. For you it may look bad what someone is doing while an other person will disagree and look at the situation differently.
But I admit yes based on your belief, political view I will be tempted based on the situation to treat you differently or even try to avoid you. This is what most people do. If they know you got conflicting ideas or opinions. Not everyone can be the same and be of a single mind but on serious subjects sometimes its important we are or will become of a single mind. Human rights, gay marriage, abortion, everyone is equal, woman = men not woman < man, etc...
I generally accept people. I'd rather judge someone on their personality then say religion because you always get variation in categories. I think that if people respect others then you should respect them, you know, the normal saying. ;p
I'm usually accepting of everyone, I know everyone has their lives and their situations. I like to find out what makes people do the things they do so I ask in a polite manner sometimes... But really I have no problem with people usually.
I'm pretty accepting of others, yeah. It takes a lot to get under my skin, and I'll get annoyed with people, but it's usually for something they've done/said, not because of their beliefs or whatever. (Unless they're adamant that whatever they believe is right & everything else is wrong.) You have to give me a reason to not accept you and to not like you before I actually end up not liking you and not accepting you.
Yes, I am. But it really does depend on how far they go. I'll give an example of where I wasn't very forgiving..In Russia I had this friend, and we had practically known each other from 6 months old; when we got to the age of around 11 he began to slide away from my friendship and group - joining a more "popular" group, that really annoyed me.
I'm generally accepting of most people, but until the first initial impression, its really hard to tell. I think its good to generally think good things until the first impression and then go from there.
