Neanderthals Or Knuckle-Draggers? Judging People' and Their Situations on 11.04.08?

It is funny the things that we can say about others in judgment when we set aside our "Christian" or civilized self-controls! Aye my friends, and voting is judging as well?

We call those people Neanderthals or Knuckle-Draggers who are not very smart or very sophisticated, and sometimes a bit brutish. Even St. Jude though, in his little letter in the Holy Bible speaks of those that are nothing more than dangerous, "brute beasts" and what he says needs done with them gets serious in his expression of terminology!

My friend Ed, who is not even Christian, but a practising Pagan, calls the people that are bothersome and trouble-making and unread and live only like "brute beasts", "Neanderthals", whereas I more think of the term "Knuckle-Draggers" for those kinds of people! (Read the little one page letter of St. Jude for harsher references and terms)

Now as people that I blog with know, I do not like silly shill-shallying or trite news! I deal mostly with the kinds of things that are intense and serious and real-life when I write, and that either out of my own experiences or what I observe and learn about the world and society around me empirically. Don't we judge' similarly to vote as well?

Maybe it is cathartic? Maybe it is selfish? Or maybe I just like to write, and write and write, after I have read and read and read, and observed, and watched and experienced a whole lot of everyday reality as well as forty-seven years of growing wiser and godly?

There are all these people around me here who look like counter-culture people like those where I am from, who have all that look of those who are different than the conservative status quo! And where I am from those people are socially aware, connected, volunteer, work for worthy causes as well as for those things that they may deem worthy and important, and their lives are about life, art and bettering the world as best as they can as individuals coming together en-masse, like hippies and other bohemians! But here it is all about rebellion and these people's looks are all a facade to do what is wrong just for selfishness sake! Their politics are not even all counter-culture or liberal or socially concerned, and they are more like skinheads in my judgment, but dressed like socially aware and concerned hippies and other bohemians! They are overgrown and over-aged children with cool garb, but not a cool or concerned thought other than their own impulsive, selfish whims for the next moments pleasure and carnal gratification, and they are all banded together for what their own mob-like mentality of getting their next and continuing fixes of personal thrills like a cluster of refuge being collective joined in any local landfill! But helping heal society instead of partying, they'd find redemption!

Am I really God's "Missionary" to reach or help anyone, or show anyone or any people the way to God, as He spoke to me and told me when I was only a little innocent boy of eight years of age, before I learned and saw so many thought-challenging, mind-altering and personally heart-breaking things? Becoming a man of spiritual philosophy that runs both deep and counter culture to those others who also name themselves "Christian" as well? So I blog and ask, and I blog and explain, and I blog and interact, and I blog!
