    I totally agree with this...admittedly of course its easier said than done but thats another topic completely::::35::

    For the sake of a little context (not adding in paragraphs and paragraphs),

    Matthew 7:2
    For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.

    Luke 6:37-38
    37"Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven. 38Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you."

    They just seem like they are pointing to the argument of putting your personal bias and pride aside and not being judgemental of others.

    The pivotal question would be: Is it about judging the person or judging their actions? By the way, honestly thank you for your rational reply. Not a OMG*** YOU ***. Much class!

    Edited because I have technical issues ::::12::

    Eloquently put.  Judging the actions and not the person is the correct way to say it.  But, does an apple tree naturally produce oranges?  Does a pear tree naturally produce lemons?  A person is known by their fruit.

    Some of you are walking-talking cliches.  BTW, the Koran reads like the Hammurabi Code.

    No the Qur'an doesn't read like the Hammurabi Code, and you can't prove that either, well i want you to.
