"Do not judge, and you will not be judged; do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven." -Luke 6:37

i have to thank my friend nora for sending me this quote from the Bible -which i really needed to hear, and have never seen before.

do you ever get into one of those moods when everything seems alright? ( Read more... )

Yes, that is a good passage. As are:

"Let us therefore no longer pass judgment on one another, but resolve instead never to put a stumbling block or hindrance in the way of another. I know and am puersuaded in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean in itself; but it is unclean for anyone who thinks it unclean." -Romans 14:13-14

“For there is no distinction, since all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” -Romans 3:23

“Do not judge, so that you may not be judged. For with the judgment you make you will be judged, and the measure you give will be the measure you get. … Why do you see the speck in your neighbor’s eye, but do not notice the log in your own eye?” -Matthew 7:1-5

...which is why it always pisses me off when religious conservatives go off on gay people, liberals, etc.

yes...i agree. there is nothing wrong persay with conservative views - I only become disturbed when things are taken out of context or used to divide people rather than bring people together. no person should think that they have the moral righteousness to judge someone else. we go through life with subjective views. i cannot judge someone who i know nothing about...or what they have been through. i can have opinions...but blatant prejudice is not moral. it simply makes no sense...
...thank you for the other quotes also.
