Was Jesus Serious Really?

Have you ever wondered why Jesus rebuked our judgmental behavior in Matt 7:1. Was Jesus really implying that we should never make judgement about anyone? Yet a few verses later Jesus calls certain people "pigs" and "dogs" Matt 7:6 and wolves in sheep's clothing!Matt 7:15 Is this all not judgmental?

It has occurred to me that most people gibly quote this verse without understanding what Jesus really meant. I solemnly think that what Jesus condemned was the unholy sense of moral superiority over others due to their moral failure! This is what Jesus means when if says 'why do you look a speck in your neighbors eye and not the log in your own eye?'

Most skeptics accuse us Christians for being judgmental as we speak on moral issues but are we really judgmental? The wrong aspect about our accusers is that instead of basing their argument on the real meaning of judging, they act and speak judgmentally and as a result they end up "judging Christians for being judgmental"

So stop this behavior of condoning evil in fear of being judgmental.......in other words "provided you are not morally-proud, then you are free to judge!!!"
