You are wrong, I'm sorry. We ARE to judge actions according to the faith, and chastise our brethren when they sin. We are never EVER to judge their heart however. That's God's job.

Only god can judge us no matter what. It is no one else's right to judge me for what I do and/or believe. I believe in god, though not necessarily YOUR god. To judge someone according to the church's standings, then didn't Jesus say when they were going to stone someone, let you without sin cast the first stone. No one cast the first stone. Unless you truly 100% follow everything the church says then you have NO right to judge anyone. Do you only have sex for procreation? Do you go to church every sunday? Do you go to confession every Saturday? Do you not eat meat on Fridays? The list goes on and on. Unless you truly follow 100%, then you have no right to judge anyone's actions or beliefs.

Humans invent Gods in their own images. When people judge others, it is God judging since he (it) does not exist outside a person's own imagination.

My brain!
If I don't believe in god, why would I be restricted by what it says in the christian bible? Who are you to judge homosexuality? To judge a political perty different from your own? Your brain, that's how.
You are inherently judging other religions by believing your book over theirs. Who made you the judge?

Yes, just like Tupac said, "Only God can judge me." But Tupac didn't know that God is an Alien.

God already judged. Just read His judgement as written. Then you are not judge, but messenger of the judgement already rendered.

Don't be so blind to your own judgmental state. Have you ever seen somebody do wrong and felt they shoud take responsibility for their actions? Have you ever seen somebody behave in a manner that was not edifying to others or to the body of CHRIST? Have you ever chosen to reject somebody while you wanted to get the attention of somebody whom you esteem?
We are not commanded not to judge (Read the letters to the Corinthians, these are the words of GOD also). We must examine what is the motive of our heart for judging, and are we judging others without first examing ourselves and dealing with our own guilt. Next, if we know that we are acting appropriately we are to go to that person and talk with them about the issue, one on one. If that person receives what I have to say and repents, then I have won a brother. However, if they reject what I have to say, then I am to take with me one or more other persons who has witnessed the offense and we are in agreement that the person is wrong. We must then go to that person and confront them again (to fail to do so means we were just gossiping). If the person rejects us, then we are to bring the action before the church and move from there. Most likely by this time the offender will have removed himself from fellowship, and it will be the HOLY SPIRIT's duty to bring him back to repentance (like the prodigal son). But our responsibility is to the church and the body of believers to protect them.
If you don't judge properly, then you will allow sexual immorality (who is gonna say pedophilia is wrong), corrupt people will rob from those who have little to lose (all in the name of a hot business venture), and false teachings will creap into church (after all who is to say the DaVinci Code couldn't be true).
Think about it.
