Unjustified justice
What would we say about a tuna in a can that frantically waves and becomes excited in view of the sea as it tries to explain how beautiful and resistant it is, that it can swim faster than any other tuna in the sea, and with all the breath it can muster in its can, tries to show how the tuna fish leaping in the open sea are not as fast or elegant?
Trying to show God that we are better than others and judging and condemning them in front of Him is the same thing. Justifying our poor life and choices in front of others is vanity. Justifying our poor life and choices in front of ourselves is pride. Justifying our poor life and choices in front of God is madness. But judging ourselves better than others and condemning others in front of God is the most simple and effective way to mathematically ensure condemnation from all living beings, the despairing hardness of life, the non forgiveness of God.
Trying to show that we are better than others in front of God and at the same time condemning others can blunt even Satan's weapons. Even the Enemy knows that when someone behaves in this way there is no need to tempt him/her anymore, there is no need to struggle even a second more to deceive and to win; that kind of a soul takes away all the fun. The game is already over.
If we want true justice, the Gospel shows us the way: stop justifying, learn to recognize our own mistakes, ask forgiveness, and start again after having learned this lesson.
Speaking in a negative way of others shows a profound laziness of the soul. It is axiomatic, the more we speak in a negative way about others the less we ourselves do, also because talking takes time, lots of time.
Speaking in a negative way of others and elevating ourselves above others shows a deep lack of confidence in ourselves.
But elevating ourselves before God and accusing our brothers before Him to make ourselves look better is beyond all stupidity, malice and spite. It leaves God without words in the face of so much damage caused by so little effort, and even the demons, who cannot make sense of so much profit earned for their cause with so little effort on their part, are stunned.
