As ever, Samian is right, though the catholic and orthodox churches didn't actually split until 1054 CE. Not to mention the Nestorians and Copts and other eastern churches that split away earlier. But yes, catholics and orthodox are the originals that can trace themselves right back to the time of jesus. And in fact they make the most logical sense, insofar as Christianity ever does. Protestants pointing the finger really need to learn some church history.

It is written to not judge others in faith, unless we want to be judged likewise.
All born again Christians are clothed in Christ Righteousness. When we try to be more righteous by doing certain things, we get into self righteousness. That is a log in our eye. A sort of blindness, and we criticize others who don't do what we think is right. We are to pray for one another, but we need Jesus to take the log out of our eye, so we can see how to take a splinter out of another's eye.
I don't judge others in faith. I am not pointing my finger at those who are sinners needing a Savior either.
I rarely hear a Christian tell me another Christian is a bad Christian. But it does happen, and it is of a critical spirit (self righteous judging).

Actually this is not a Christian problem it is a people problem. We all do it. For some reason we think that if we focus on other people’s problems we don’t have to face up to our own. The problem with this is that we develop a critical view of everything and in those quiet moments we turn that critical eye on ourselves too. Personally I have found that there are much better ways of living.

There is a difference between judging people and helping the body of Christ become more refined. I don't like people to judge me but I do want to be refined by my brothers and sisters in Christ.
When a parent corrects a child its out of love because the parent wants the child to do what is right. We don't always enjoy being corrected but we ultimately want to do the will of God. I need others to help me see my mistakes more clearly.

Because there are a lot of fanatical Christians out there that just use the word Christian but really are not Christians, many preach it but do not walk their talk, it is not hard pick them out, we see and hear them on the TV and radio daily, and their actions speak louder than their talk, I simply see them as false Christians and I do not hesitate to voice my opinions about them.

Because they are not really Christian. If one is truly a Christian, they would try to be like Christ, kind, generous, loving, forgiving. Claiming to be a Christian does not give anyone the license to pass judgment, be nasty and hateful, or to tell anyone weather or not they will be welcome in heaven. Many people who claim to be Christian are sorely misguided, and have no idea whatsoever how to serve God. I believe that God is love, and that we are supposed to be kind to one another, help out our fellow man (or woman), to treat other as we want to be treated ourselves. You cannot be ugly in the name of God and accomplish anything good.
God Bless You

As it says in the Bible:
Matthew 7:4
Or how can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when there is the log in your own eye?
Matthew 7:5
You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye.
Luke 6:42
How can you say to your brother, 'Brother, let me take out the speck that is in your eye,' when you yourself do not see the log that is in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take out the speck that is in your brother's eye.
-Yes other christians should not be quick to judge.

It's because they are not right with God, and they dont thrive to become like Jesus.
