James 4:11
Brothers, do not slander one another. Anyone who speaks against his brother or judges him speaks against the law and judges it. When you judge the law, you are not keeping it, but sitting in judgment on it.
Romans 2:1
[ God's Righteous Judgment ] You, therefore, have no excuse, you who pass judgment on someone else, for at whatever point you judge the other, you are condemning yourself, because you who pass judgment do the same things.
Luke 6:37
[ Judging Others ] “Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.
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.
Matthew 7:1
[ Judging Others ] “Do not judge, or you too will be judged.
James 4:12
There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the one who is able to save and destroy. But you–who are you to judge your neighbor?
Romans 14:4
Who are you to judge someone else's servant? To his own master he stands or falls. And he will stand, for the Lord is able to make him stand.
Romans 14:10
You, then, why do you judge your brother? Or why do you look down on your brother? For we will all stand before God's judgment seat.
1 Corinthians 4:5
Therefore judge nothing before the appointed time; wait till the Lord comes. He will bring to light what is hidden in darkness and will expose the motives of men's hearts. At that time each will receive his praise from God.
1 Corinthians 6:5
I say this to shame you. Is it possible that there is nobody among you wise enough to judge a dispute between believers?
and of course the classic
John 8:7
So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
John 13:34
A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
John 15:12
This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.
John 15:17
These things I command you, that ye love one another.
Mark 12:31
And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.
Matthew 22:39
And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
Matthew 25:40
‘I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.'
==================

"Don't pass judgment, so you won't be judged. Don't forget, the judgment you hand out will be the judgment you get back. And the standard you use will be the standard used on you. Why do you notice the speck in your neighbor's eye, but overlook the timber in your own? How can you say to your neighbor, "Let me get the speck out of your eye, when there is that timber in your own? You phony, first take the timber out of your own eye and then you'll see well enough to remove the speck from your neighbor's eye." (Matthew 7:1-5 Scholars Version)

Does that include lying, and infecting innocent people with tainted blood?

So, we should assume that the "proof" you requested was posted and you prefer not to acknowledge it. That's okay. We know being wrong is physically painful for you.

If you know anybody you has infected someone with tainted blood, let us know. Otherwise, we'll just assume that your li'l tirade was just more of your blather.

Do you absolutely know he infected people? Because if not, stop assuming all gays have AIDS and shut your mouth. I want tangible proof, not a presumption, and if not, I want you to ADMIT that you're wrong. It will pleeeease me.

You have your resident liar here - Trista - who earlier bragged about lying in order to donate blood to the American Red Cross.

Is this NOT a bold-faced lie?
Is this NOT needlessly putting innocent people at risk?
Is this NOT openly un-christian in its deceit and risk?
Is this NOT unlawful?

The answer to all the above-questions is, "YES!"

Do you want tangible proof that the American Red Cross asks questions that REQUIRE YOU TO LIE IN ORDER TO GIVE BLOOD IF YOU ARE ENGAGING IN HOMOSEXUAL SEX?

Trista is a bold-faced LIAR.

Do you want to, without knowing it, receive blood that has been flagged as possibly tainted by the Red Cross?

Yes or no?

Yeah that's right...(moderator edit)

Where the Bible speaks of "judging" it is talking about making decisions based on no evidence.

So by your standard, I can't decide anything - from the color of the car I decided to buy, to where I want to live - because that'd be "judging".

You didn't answer my questions.

Answer them, in the way you know they HAVE to be answered.

Then I'll answer yours.
