It is because some Christians DO judge people. No, not all Christians do, but depending upon what your religious denomination is some churches teach this sort of thing ... if you do not believe what we do, then you are not going to Heaven. They look down on you and feel that they need to "save" you. That is judging. It is not just Christians that do this, though. There are many religions that feel they are the "one true religion", and if you do not believe what they teach, then you are not going to Heaven.

That's not judging though. Christianity the belief in god, jessus, and the holy ghost. We do belivenif you don't except Christ you are not going to heaven. That's not a judgment though it's a belief . I only see it as judging if you are going around telling people that are going to hell for no reason. I beliventhat there is only one god I just dint see how so many can belive my religion to be judgmental esspeciLy when so many people used to respect it and practice it

I have to disagree with you - it is judgmental. There are different denominations of Christianity that believe in God, but they do not judge other religions. They do not say that "If you do not believe what I believe ... this religion with these exact teachings and practices ... then you are not going to Heaven". The religions that say that are judgmental, in my opinion. I do not know what religion you are, so I do not know whether or not your particular church has these teachings. I can just tell you that there are some that do. They do not care whether or not you have accepted God as your savior if you have not accepted God the way they say you should.

perhaps they think that we dont do sinful things but that is not the case coz im a christian too but we're all humans alone...many time and until now i still do commit sins and i regret and ashamed of it but may times i just see it and consider it as a lesson or a test...perhaps we just let people show what God had done to change our lives...im still in the process of accomplishing it because honestly many times i failed to do it!! God bless=))

It depends on what you mean by judgment. If you mean warning someone that they are doing or about to do wrong, then that is called righteous judgment. If you had already done that thing, that is also righteous judgment since you have already suffered the consequence of , for example, shop lifting and having to sit in the office waiting until the manager called your parent, etc.
However if you are continuing to do that wrong deed and have no intention to stop and you say do not, that is the bad judgment. Trouble is that many believe that if you try to stop a person from harming himself or doing wrong, that is that horrible judgment that you should not have.
Of course we cannot judge by appearance, that poor man in bad raiment who comes to a banquet is an example. And where they go. An example, when my husband and I were at a motel years ago, we had to go through the place where they had all those slot machines to get from our room to the restaurant. People could have assumed that we were gamblers and one of the girls who started to go to our church dressed really weird, had Mohawk hair and very short dress and well not put together properly. She is now married and expecting and dresses normal now. You cannot judge people by appearance.
I think that if you had told us what judgment do you mean, then if it is on appearance or where they are found, that is wrong, but if it is trying to prevent someone from harming themselves with the examples above, that is all right.

There are all sorts of people in all faiths. Some Chistians do judge other faiths or lack of them, but not all do. There are Muslims who do the same, but not all of them do either. I hope we will all be able to live together in peace and respect with own own beliefs some day.
Don´t get mad . I have been told I´ll go to hell many times, but I just don´t listen. I prefer to talk to nice people who accept them for what I am. I accept them too.
