I try and live by one simple rule and if I am wrong God is the only one who can show me my wrongs when I stand before him in judgment, the same as everyone else will! The Bible is to teach us as individuals how to live in God's will it is not meant to argue someone else's religions and beliefs! You are supose to spread the good news and the good news is that God has sent forth a savior that has redemption and salvation for us if we simply accept him, believe, and follow him!!!!
Luke 6:37-42
37{Don't Condemn Others--} "Stop judging others, and you will not be judged. Stop criticizing others, or it will all come back on you. If you forgive others, you will be forgiven.
38If you give, you will receive. Your gift will return to you in full measure, pressed down, shaken together to make room for more, and running over. Whatever measure you use in giving-- large or small-- it will be used to measure what is given back to you."
39Then Jesus gave the following illustration: "What good is it for one blind person to lead another? The first one will fall into a ditch and pull the other down also.
40A student is not greater than the teacher. But the student who works hard will become like the teacher.
41"And why worry about a speck in your friend's eye when you have a log in your own?
42How can you think of saying, 'Friend, let me help you get rid of that speck in your eye,' when you can't see past the log in your own eye? Hypocrite! First get rid of the log from your own eye; then perhaps you will see well enough to deal with the speck in your friend's eye.
(NLT)

Judge a tree by it's fruit... Find that in the scriptures... and you can find the time when we can judge.. But Going by the 10 commandments, can't I easly look at someone and call them a Lieing Blaspheming Adulterer without ever really getting to know them? Remember, we've all broken the Law, in that sence we are all Sinners... We've all fallen short of the Glory of God..

Because those types of religious people believe that they are the exceptional and in their minds it's okay for them to judge because they're "helping" others. That's the excuse I've been given anyway. They're hypocrites plain and simple no matter how they try to excuse it.

of course sweetie
no one knows Gods thoughts ... what he would judge or wouldnt
no one but God would know the surrounding situation that leads a person to do what they do ... except that person themself
we should never judge anyone when we havent walked in their shoes

They think Gods law is better then mans laws. Yet Gods laws seem like something from a primitive society. I wonder why.

Yes it should. You might want to have some male member of your family bring that up in the next Sharia law trial, since they definitely won't put any worth in what you, a woman, say.
