You can call my original statement judging if you want. I however, do not tell people that I am a "Christian" living a life like Jesus and then stick the sword in their back. I do not have a pulpit I condemn them from and point my finger down at them (even though I have a Doctor of Divinity Degree). I do not go to the ladies character assassination and gossip auxiliary. I do not go to the deacons meeting and talk about how hot the young new preachers wife is.
My approach to people is that I am honest with them when asked and the rest of the time I am polite and friendly. I NEVER condemn the person - only the action - to THEM not to others unless it is necessary (such as work situation). I do not gossip or exaggerate. I help people when they ask and as a result I have many loyal friends that I trust with my life.
Again I only expressed my experience with organized religion and that I did not want to be associated with that type of behavior. It is still MY contention that I did not commit a judging (in the Biblical sense of the word) action because I did not judge a person ONLY those actions I have seen by MANY people claiming to be God like.
Judge not less ye be judged
It was. And you continue to do it.
I NEVER condemn the person
Perhaps if you define what you mean by 'condemning' I will see a difference between what you are doing and what you are complaining about.

You are behaving in a hypocritical manner.
I'm just judging a behavior, so it must be okay in your book. ;)
All have the power to judge.
None are given the power to condemn.
