If you dig deep enough, you find that we are all trying to honor the principals that we believe is healthy, for a future worth living.

Some continue to follow a path, that may look like to us, a path that clearly will lead to certain suffering, and even faster death. But when your first principal is to survive the pain, or the upcoming pain and money promises hope to escape it, all virtues are on hold... for what good are ethical principals if you are dead, or believe you will be without them?

So one compromises, temporarily... sothey believe, and then it becomes a habit, and then it becomes them, unbeknown to them.

Do not judge them, for any judgment surely can be passed on to you for when you know you could have done better. But we don't know what we don't know, and hen you realize that, your first step into compassionate understanding begins.
