It's fine to have opinions and principles, as long as they're not blindly condemnatory of those of others. If you only assume you know why someone is saying something, then that's no better than condemning a book without reading it.

Blindly condemnatory. A great description of condemning a book without reading it. Not such a good description of the criticism of those who do this. You are really tying yourself up in knots with your last sentence. Or perhaps trying to fit a square peg in a round hole.
