Me: I judge person A because of how I feel personally about the subject.
Fiance: But, how can you judge person A when how you feel is only defined by your own feelings?
Me: Because being objective only works in some situations. Most things will be automatically judged by a person, because of their own personal feelings.
My fiance believes that each individual defines their own reality. That, say...If I had a problem with person A doing hard drugs, then that is wrong. Because, I'm reflecting my own views onto them. I'm judging them from my own personal wants and beliefs, whereas she believes everyone should be judged according to their own values. Despite this, she admits that there are base things, such as murder and intentional hurt of others, that all should be judged on. I was going to be a smartass and point out that she's reflecting her own views as well, just on a lower scale, but eh.
So, the questions I am pondering right now are as follows:
How, if any way, can we define right from wrong? Say a person grows up in a society that says rape is okay. But, then they move onto a society that says the reverse. Who is right and who is wrong? Does the person who believes rape is okay deserve forgiveness if they rape someone?
My second question is the more important. Assuming you can define right from wrong, which is and which isn't? Taking an observers standpoint and judging all based on how they themselves would judge or judging all based on how you yourself view the world?
Sorry, I'm just really bored here and feel like spewing mind garbage.
