I don't think that christians really believe everything they preach...... I think maybe if they really thought they were going to heaven they wouldn't judge (it says in the bible not to). I hate to tell you guys but if you want someone to take your point seriously it should be more than just words you say but actions you take (or don't as the case may be). Do you think maybe you're giving your whole religion a bad name by treating people like crap "in god's name"? What about the atheists? Do you think you would take a debate with these people more seriously if they weren't judging you every other second and trying to tell you how stupid you are??

Maybe I am judgemantal and probably a hypocrite too- I'm not trying to convince people to join my religion though. My only point is that it might not be the best way to accomplish your goals.

I think that people would take any discussion more seriously if it could be debated in a calm rational manner without any name calling or judgement.

Jesus preached forgiveness and non-judgement, so in a pure sense if we were to follow Christ's teaching we would not act in the manner you describe, but we are humans and just as you lump "Christians" as everyone who is a christian or at least a lot of them together based on the way you phrased your question, Christians too make mistakes, without making themselves evil, or on the road to hell...

We are allowed to judge, but with " righteous " judgment because with every judgment put forth the person doing the judging will be judged in the same way.

You rant on and on about how Christians judge. You write about how wrong it is to judge. And how do you do this? By judging them... even calling them stupid. Hypocritical indeed.

Christians need to remember to teach with Love as Christ instructed.

It looks to me like you are being pretty judgmental yourself. Don't throw that word "hypocrite" around too loosely.
