The way to keep yourself from making assumptions is to ask questions. Make sure the communication is clear. If you don't understand, ask.

Once you hear the answer, you will not have to make assumptions because you will know the truth. Also

The conflict exists in the human mind, not in the rest of nature. Good and evil are the result of that conflict. Believing in truth results in goodness; believing in and defending what is not truth results in evil. Evil is just the result of believing in lies.
