You tell us that the bible tells us (Christians) not to judge others. We are not judging people, we're judging their sin. Sin is walking in darkness and we are the light and darkness doesn't like to be exposed to light. Mat 5:14-16 You say we are harsh and angry when we speak. Of coures I'm angry at Satan for all the destruction that's been caused by him. Ps 139:19-22 Jesus was angry at the evil the Pharasees did in Mat23:13-31 "Woe unto you Scribes and Pharasees, hypocrites, white-washed tombs with dead men's bones in them,etc. Also Jesus whipped the merchants out of the temple for making it a market place; Mat. 21:13 "It is written, My house shall be called a house of prayer, but you have made it a den of thieves." Jesus was persecuted and I'm his student and I'm not better then my teacher. They called Jesus evil and tried to cast him down off the mountain.

I agree with you that "Judge not" has been a mis-interpreted Scripture that some people like to throw at Christians in order to justify their own actions. The fact is that when we say a particular action is wrong, if that action has already been declared by God to be wrong, we are not judging. That action has ALREADY BEEN JUDGED by God Himself and HE has declared it wrong. We are not judging. We are simply agreeing with what God has said.

True that. That's a beatiful statement Cloudwatcher. Even a lot of Christians say that, too; to not judge others. I would advise them to read those scriptures that I've used as resources.
