We should not confuse the meaning of judging in the sense of testing for truthfulness and the judging of righteousness in a man's or woman's actions. Because Jesus said "Forgive them father for they do not know what they are doing" So saying that he let the judgement to God himself.
Judging of the world is something else and to come not until past the end.

You are right we should judge what is good and bad. But judging stops at a point.
Jas 4:11 Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that speaketh evil of his brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh evil of the law, and judgeth the law: but if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge.
Jas 4:12 There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy: who art thou that judgest another?
Mt 7:1 Judge not, that ye be not judged.
Mt 7:2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
To judge someone is not right judge their actions are they good or bad. Be don't condemn them for the bad. Jesus Christ is our judge and his judgment is better than ours.
Joh 8:15 Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man.
Joh 8:16 And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.

(John 7:24 KJV) Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.
Righteous judgment is based upon the Word of God, The Bible. Man is a fallen being and man's judgment is twisted often by the sin that dwells in him.

Judgement simply reflects the view of the one judging and not the condition or true nature of what is being judged.
When one ceases to judge and simply allows what is to be what it is, one awakens to seeing clearly the nature of what is as it is as oppsed to seeing what one "judges" something to be.
Judging leads to the view/opinion of separateness from the rest of existence. No one, or no thing is separate from all else that is. Everything that exist in made of the same second generation star material, exist in the same present moment and is interdependent upon all of existance for that one's existance.
Judging leads to desires and attachments. Desires and attachments lead to suffering.
It appears to be more beneficial to one's self and to all others if one does not judge.
It appears to be more beneficial to one'se self and to all others to simply see what is for what it is and to allow all that is to "be".
May it all be well with you.

Christians feel that they should judge everything and find it all wanting. Then, they should punish. Why wait for god to punish for eternity, when a few extra days of punishment will help the christians feel better about themselves now.

in case you choose each and every thing via classification and race then you definitely are insecure approximately your self. Insecure human beings experience the ought to choose because of the fact they experience inadequate and could evaluate themselves against some thing.

Didnt Jesus say "Judge not unless you be judged" and "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone"

if you let a book be the ultimate judge of right and wrong then you may as well carve your brain out with an ice cream scoop, because you should get by just fine with a spinal column.
