Just because I think you're wrong doesn't mean I don't understand your perspective. It means I understand your perspective, and I think it's poorly considered, frought with error, and will inevitably lead to personal disaster.

Ummm, I actually tend to agree with Flint on this one. People do what they do and think what they think because of any number of life experiences which are in sum total unique to them alone. They are most likely doing the best they can with what they've got (granted there are exceptions, but these are usually a small percentage).
Making the statement that you would be able to step into someone else's shoes and still view them as a complete idiot indicates a certain lack of imagination if not also empathy on your part.
