The Bible says to judge not - lest ye be judged yourself.

That's the leftist/liberal version of the quote that they use in order to avoid any moral judgements.
The complete quote includes "by the same measure" - if you judge someone, be prepared to BE judged by the same measure you used.

I believe the meaning is the same either way you word it. I don’t know about my version being the “leftist/liberal” version - I am 51 years old, daughter of a Southern Baptist deacon - I was in the church every time the doors were open & that’s the way I’ve always heard it said.

Judging what’s in someone’s heart - only the Lord can do that - not Dobson. Even by your version of the saying - Dobson falls short. He is in no way capable of judging someone’s faith, therefore - he was wrong & should have kept his mouth shut.
