Is this a form of Obsesive Compulsive Disorder? Can they not help themselves?
Or
Do you think that religion just attracts close minded people?
I have read the King James version from start to finish, and I dont recall anywhere in the Bible it saying that God needs/wants man/woman to sit in judgment of others. In fact the bible I read says over and over again for man/woman to love one and other as Christ loves us.
By the way, I have read the books of other religions, and I think this is a common thread in all of them. Why cant people be kind to one and other?

When people judge it's because they are believing a delusion. The delusion that their beliefs give them some kind of superiority over others, which is false. It's like a mirror what they judge in another is really what they're afraid of in themselves.
True understanding dispels delusion.

Some people just like to stir up hate and discontent. Some do get judgmental and that usually means it's because they too have been judged.
In the Holy Bible, the scriptures tell us that we will be judged in the measurement in which we judge.
I'm leaving that up to God. ((He does a much better job, anyway!))

flow decrease back and study Matthew 7:a million-6 & 21-23, besides as Matt. ch. 23 approximately hypocrisy. worry & human assumption is the reason. no person is extra useful than the subsequent man or woman, yet many assume they are and that they get off aim from the real course to God via doing so and harm others and settle on them. in the event that they have been a real follower of God they might comprehend extra useful.

Think of it this way: If you know 5 x 10 = 50, and the person next to you says no, the information I have says it is 60.
Based on the knowledge you have, the information you have learned, you will judge that this person is wrong, his answer is wrong, his information is wrong. That is judgement - we all do it all the time. It is human nature.

I think everyone judges others, its human nature. Whether they are religeous or not. It is one thing to think things but it is different when you actually follow through (actions) with something. A persons actions tell you a lot about a person.

Psalm 97:10 Ye that love the LORD, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.
maybe you are confusing judging with evil-hating
btw, you sound angry by the tone of your post... which is kinda funny when you say "Do you think that religion just attracts close minded people?"
Be nice...nastiness is unnecessary when asking a question

All people feel that way, and rightfully so.
You have every right to judge everyone and everything else, and you have every right to speak your mind on the matter.
I mean, really, what's the harm? Everyone's entitled to their opinions, and everyone else is entitled to make fun of them for it.
Sure, being a judgmental jerk won't get someone a lot of friends, but they're well within their rights in acting the way that they do.

These people mainly judge because they want other people to be intimidated by them so no one can cast judgement on them. A true Christian wouldn't judge someone else.
