if people weren't so judgemental of each other. If only everybody could just be themselves and not be judged.

Conflict makes the world more interesting. If all people would accept all other people, there'd be a great deal less of it.

I don't agree with the first part, whatever attracts people makes it interesting. If there were no conflict or if conflict never existed i'm sure there would be something else in place that would create interest in someone.

I suppose so. The only way that what the original poster is wishing for would be possible is if Human nature was drastically different to how it is. So really, it's hard to say what the world would be like (as perceived by Humans).

It does seem to be a lot of fighting testy roosters at times :oops:

Give me a world run by women

I've seen matrolineal societies, and crime and bullying is much less

Restore the old ways!

I think we have a need for competition. Without knock-down, drag-out fights, we'd probably channel that energy into sports, political campaigns, gaming, and various competitions for prizes. We already do, to some degree.

If you mean being judged by their race, gender, religion or sexual orientation etc.., then absolutely the world would be a far better place without that.

People do need to be judged though solely based on the decisions they make, because that is a direct reflection of their judgement. ie) if I'm a black male who robbed someone, then I should be judged for the crime that I committed and punished for it. If I'm simple a black male then I should not be judged

So to answer your question we do need to be judged to some degree, but by what we do, not who we are
