Nothing is as peevish and pedantic as men's judgments of one another.

Ordinarily logic is divided into the examination of ideas, judgments, arguments, and methods. The two latter are generally reduced to judgments, that is, arguments are reduced to apodictic judgments that such and such conclusions follow from such and such premises, and method is reduced to judgments that prescribe the procedure that should be followed in the search for truth.

Judgments, value judgments concerning life, for or against, can in the last resort never be true: they possess value only as symptoms, they come into consideration only as symptoms - in themselves such judgments are stupidities.

There is synthesis when, in combining therein judgments that are made known to us from simpler relations, one deduces judgments from them relative to more complicated relations.There is analysis when from a complicated truth one deduces more simple truths.

I have made good judgments in the past. I have made good judgments in the future.
I never fixed a story. I didn't make judgments, I let the listener make judgments. When I got to the end of the story, if it had a moral, I let the listener find it.

While science and technology play critical roles in sustaining modern civilization, they are not part of our culture in the sense that they are not commonly studied or well comprehended. Neither the potential nor the limitations of science are understood so that what can be achieved and what is beyond reach are not comprehended. The line between science and magic becomes blurred so that public judgments on technical issues can be erratic or badly flawed. It frequently appears that some people will believe almost anything. Thus judgments can be manipulated or warped by unscrupulous groups. Distortions or outright falsehoods can come to be accepted as fact.

Socrates seems to be the philosophical napkin with which the ensuing cultural thinkers of history wipe their mouths of pedantic ooze.
A good designer must rely on experience, on precise, logic thinking; and on pedantic exactness. No magic will do.

Portraits are to daily faces
As an Evening West,
To a fine, pedantic sunshine—
In a satin Vest!

For an author to write as he speaks is just as reprehensible as the opposite fault, to speak as he writes; for this gives a pedantic effect to what he says, and at the same time makes him hardly intelligible.

Will Your Name Be There My Friend?
Christ is over everything, as God has put all things under His feet,
Even all Believers will be judged by Jesus Christ at The Bema Seat.
Their works will be judged, while others will face The White Throne,
However this second Judgment is one that they’ll Eternally bemoan.
When at The Lord’s Heavenly Throne will be those who Truly believed,
Will be acknowledging Jesus by laying down the crowns they received.
Others won’t be so joyful, for Eternal Damnation will be their end,
They had many opportunities, but chose to scoff at Christ my friend.
For their arrogance they will see Eternal Punishment with no relief,
For they chose to laugh and mock and follow those who were deceived.
They will again have opportunities to see that Christ is truly real.
When Christ the Only One Who is Worthy will open up the first seal.
After the seals are all opened the Trumpet Judgments will be seven,
And God’s Fiery Judgments will continue on every man under Heaven.
Then God will continue with His Judgments through the seventh bowl,
For God must quench His Righteous Anger on every unbelieving soul.
And also the False Prophet who deceived unbelievers to their death,
Christ will destroy by His Splendor and overthrow him by His breath.
Now that Jesus has shown us The Way and nothing will change the end,
When He opens up The Book of Life will your name be there my friend?

I will be in comfort and others in peace
Down under and deep inside me
There sits a judge with a hammer
Beside a big old wooden table
With a eye-folded statue and a
Tossing balance
No one around,
No attendant or clerk in front
Only the accused
In the stand meant
No witness, nor arguments
No lawyer for or against the accused
No mention of sections or provisions
Of any law or regulation
And the judge is ever ready for judging
And comes out to declare that
This is good and that is bad
Which law school he is from
In which law he is a specialist
I know not a thing,
But he is always judging
And makes me act on his judgments
Normally we address
“The learned judge”
I know how “learned”
The person judging
Sitting down under deep inside me
Most of his judgments and
Subsequent acts of mine
Made me regret
And put others in discomfort
I have a request to
My inside judge
“Oh, Noble but lowly learned judge
How nice will it be
If you stop judging'
I will be in comfort and
Others in peace
