I don't think we need to fear the word 'prejudice' as much as some here do.  
I'm not saying it's a good thing, but I fail to see the distinction between 
pre-judging and prejudice, aside from spelling.  Or are you saying that 
'prejudice' is the evil form of pre-judging?  I made a pre-judgement about 
the woman in the picture based entirely on her apperance.  If that isn't 
prejudice, what is?
