Does your religion mean you judge people differently to others? Hmm...no, not my religion.
Would you be friends with someone who had an abortion or was gay?
Is this question in relation to a person's religious beliefs? If so, then it would depend on their religion and not so much on their own personal views...unless their views coincide with their religion.
I am friends with ALMOST everyone who crosses my path...I look at the inner person, and you'd also be surprised how many people in the church are gay or had an abortion....no...I don't judge, but the doctrines of many churches does.
And I did say ALMOST, cause if a person is toooo negative, I seem to seem to polarize away from them....
Sure I know what you mean too...If you look into a drug addict, a prostitutes, or...well etc.....They never planned on being what they are...Something happened to them that cause them to move in that direction.....

I understand your point, but this is something that is human, we as human beings judge based, all too often, on lack of understanding. It doesn't matter what religion or belief we are a part of, we all can judge. Even if we have no belief, we still judge. Is it wrong? Yes. Is it because of religion? Not always, it is a human flaw. Most of the time religions or belief systems are used to justify someone's judgments about other people.

I know what you mean.....I just say "It's not my place to judge"...and If I know they're Christians then I say "Who am I to judge, isn't that gods job?"
Then tell them they are being judgeful, and there is a scripture that states that we are not allowed to judge...."for as you judge, so you shall also be judged."
