A Christian may call sin when they see it as a wrong doing.
You however are doing a judgemental task.
We all sin. There is no doubt about it.
The Lord has a compassionate heart and He wishes us to have the same attitude toward those who have committed sin. In fact, the Word of God deals with any transgression of the law as a serious offense. It matters not how big or little we might consider the sin to be. In God's eyes, sin is sin, and all sin must have the same remedy of Christ's cleansing. If we point our finger at other's sins without dealing with our own, we are bringing judgment upon ourselves.

To answer your question that you linked to, Jesus said that marital unfaithfulness or sexual immorality was grounds for divorce.
Sin is sin and to point out to someone that their actions are called sin by the Bible is one thing. A Christian should acknowledge the truth of God's word and confess and repent. But the real question is why are you trying to stir up strife amongst Christians? That's the work of the flesh and those who practice it will not inherit the Kingdom of God.
Galatians 5:19 Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, 20 idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, 21 envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

The question asked before misinterpreted Matthew 5:32.
According to Jesus' words, adultery is involved in divorce only if someone remarries without the first marriage being declared unlawful.
The Catholic Church's teachings on marriage and divorce are perfectly in line with that.

christians are supposed to have good judgement in the sense of knowing right from wrong
that is not the same as being judgemental
the difference is probably that CHristians must speak the truth in love. If they are speaking not in love... that is a problem

A sin is a mistake, something you shouldn't do. Judging is looking at someone else and calling them on their mistake. I shouldn't do this as a Christian because Jesus said not to.He said I should look at my own mistakes before I pick on someone else.

Funny how people say you take it out of context when the context is women who remarry are adulterouses. It says the man who marries them is also a sinner.
Women get the shaft again and still you find women who are Christians. It amazes me.

you were Judging, you did not give the complete verse. Its only a sin to just flat out divorce with no good reason, but if there is cheating involoved etc it is forgiven. its not something they made up, read it and you will see.

You take that Scripture well out of context without associating all of what Jesus said.
When you manipulate Scripture for your own belief or will, you become strictly religious. There is no life in it.
Now, would you like to see the real path of Jesus?

Most Christian's fail at Jesus teachings of non judgement
