Being Judgemental

It is in our nature to be judgemental. Especially for us Indians, it is like a national pastime. Whenever we encounter any new situation, meet somebody for the first time, or for that matter, get to see anything which has somehow gone a little bit, out of the normal routine of things, we jump at the opportunity to "sum it up".
Is it possible to judge a situation or a person without reading the situation from all the angles? or for that matter knowing a persons character, attitude or thought processes in its entirety?
Are we really bestowed with the gift of really differentiating between the good and the bad? if we glance minutely at things, we will find them more in shades of gray, than anything else.
Can we just sit back and reflect about why then, are we so opinionated and dogmatic?
