1PM I'd Have to See Them Dance

Female potential juror: I can't sit on a jury for religious reasons. I don't believe in judging people.
Lawyer: This is a negligence case. You won't be deciding if somebody is good or evil. There's no question of morality involved.
Female potential juror: Whatever -- it's against my religious convictions to judge people.
Lawyer: You understand that we're not asking you to send someone to Hell -- you just have to decide whether or not they were clumsy.
