How to Judge Someone:

Here is a rough guide on how to judge a person. Feel free to improvise:

1. Make sure that we don't know the person from Adam and/or have had only very minimal interactions with him/her. 

2. Observe the person closely through the filter of preconceived notions. 

3. Without trying to understand where his/her views might be coming from, choose to be offended by his/her comments or actions.

4. Conclude that he/she does not fit "my" mold of how he/she "should be".

How to be free from the plague of judging:

Love unconditionally - because we don't have the slightest clue of what someone may have been through in life. This may not necessarily be easy as it sounds, but it's so worth it.

Why is Judging Bad?

What exactly is wrong with judging someone? Why is this very negative activity frowned upon, when we know that the person we judge "deserves" our tongue or thought lashing? 

Judging and condemning others is bad, not because it is impolite or because Jesus exploded at this venomous negativity.

When the faithful religious crowd was about to stone a woman, Jesus said, “He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.” 

Once it finally hits us, that all of us needs His Grace, then our reaction would automatically be, "how can I judge someone?".
